New Year’s Eve in São Paulo: from starry dinners to parties; check the options

Gone are the days when spending the new year’s eve in Sao Paulo was synonymous with boredom or lack of options. For some years now, the main hotels in the city have started to prepare dinners, parties and shows for their guests. In addition, event organizers are increasingly promoting options for festivities to receive tourists and also São Paulo residents, who for some reason do not want or cannot leave the city on the occasion.

This year, a fact should make New Year’s Eve in the capital even more crowded and attractive. That’s because the turn of 2022 to 2023 will fall in a weekend – for many, with no chance of amendments – which will naturally increase the number of people who will stay in the city.

Check out some of the suggestions, ranging from premium dinners to open bar parties:

Tangara Palace

Dinner will be rocked by a jazz trio.

For those looking for something more relaxed and exciting, a party will also be prepared in the hotel’s Crystal Room, with the SOS band and DJ, as well as an open bar with Moët & Chandon Champagne, wines, premium spirits and signature drinks.
