Highlights
Nightlife
São Paulo’s vivacious party scene is lauded as a world leader. A wide range of styles and genres attracts a fun-loving crowd, with international DJs playing club music in the neighbourhoods of Jardins, Vila Olímpia and Itaim Bibi. In Vila Madalena, the neighbourhood's more Bohemian local bars and smaller music venues can be explored. In Centro, there are clubs, live music venues and pop-up parties that add even further colour to the city’s vibrant nocturnal ambience.
Restaurants
Like the city itself, São Paulo’s gourmet scene is characterised by sophistication, experimentation and the influence of its international inhabitants. Brazilian ingredients, such as vanilla pods, pequi nuts and cashew vinegar, feature in classical dishes, offset against menus with a distinctly international twist. From Michelin-starred restaurants and gourmet fourteen-course tasting menus, to rustic-style cafés and mouthwatering bakeries, there’s something to suit every palate.
