Getting around & quick tips

• Between Lapa and Copacabana, use registered taxis/ride-hailing; Metro works well for Cinelândia ↔ Copacabana before midnight.
• Arrive 20–30 minutes early for seated shows; bring photo ID. Most venues accept cards.
• Keep phones secure in crowded rodas; set a clear meet point if splitting groups.
