Inferno Club
Inferno Club keeps the metal and rock flag flying on Rua Augusta. The venue books local bands and tribute acts most nights, giving São Paulo's dedicated rock community a regular home base. The room is dark, decorated in the expected rock/metal style (posters, skulls, red lighting), and the stage is compact enough that the guitar amps fill every corner. The crowd is loyal: regulars who've been coming for years, head-banging in the same spots. Beer is cold and cheap. The music is loud and heavy. If you love rock and metal, Inferno Club is your church. If you don't, you'll know within 30 seconds.
What to Expect
A loud, dark rock and metal venue with a devoted crowd. The bands play with conviction, the audience responds in kind, and the room fills with the kind of energy that only live heavy music creates. Not for the faint of heart or sensitive of ear.
