About Eskada
Bottle service and VIP booths anchor the room on Rua da Alegria, giving groups somewhere to hold ground while the floor fills below them — and at a $$ band, that's a more attainable prospect here than the format usually suggests. The music moves between trance, hip hop and softer lounge-house through the early hours, which suits a room that doesn't really begin until doors open at midnight and runs to 6am on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Those midweek and Sunday peaks are the tell: this is a crowd of locals, Brazilian and South American regulars and visiting tourists who treat a Tuesday as fair game. Smart casual is enforced rather than suggested, the door works to a 25–45 range, and it trades year-round in the Centro Histórico, a short walk from the city's older streets.
