Also notable: ongoing theater productions and the always-reliable bar scene in Vila Madalena or Pinheiros.

Suggested route

19:30 arrive on Paulista → optional early set at Blue Note → 20:30–21:00 rideshare to Consolação for Casa de Francisca → end the night with jazz at Bourbon Street (Moema) or drift to Vila Madalena/Pinheiros bars if preferring a looser vibe.

Getting around & quick tips

• Paulista ↔ Consolação ↔ Vila Madalena ↔ Moema legs are 12–30 min by app ride on Tuesdays - traffic is light.
• Carry photo ID; smart-casual works everywhere. Many venues are seated/intimate - reserving ahead is wise.
• Mid-week evenings remain relaxed; perfect for conversation-friendly venues rather than high-energy clubbing.

Note: Tuesday, Nov 18, 2025 is a quieter night in São Paulo. The listings above reflect recurring/typical programming; always recheck venue websites or Instagram for the exact artist on the day, as special one-offs can appear last-minute.
