About this place A Lôca

A Lôca is a gay club on Rua Frei Caneca in Consolação, the street at the centre of São Paulo's gay nightlife, and has been there since 1995. It's a small, dark, no-frills dance club, not a cocktail bar. The music runs from electronic to pop, the crowd is a mix of gay men, lesbians, trans people and clubbers, and nights run late. It opens Thursday to Sunday from 20:00, or 18:00 on Sunday, and stays open until 05:00 on Friday and Saturday. Things don't get going until well after midnight. Cover charges are moderate. Frei Caneca Mall and the other bars on the street are a short walk away.

Open bar with drinks that were warm, like coffee. I got two large Itaipava beers that were warm, and the refrigerators were off. It's a mockery of the visitor; I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

The club is beautiful, everything is decorated, it has 3 floors with a rooftop, clean bathrooms, air conditioning, the bar is really cool, I went yesterday to see Melody, great show, good audio, there was a line on the street, but they came and started letting people in, they gave a wristband and you could have direct access to the club, but the place doesn't hold many people, that was a terrible mistake, they sold more tickets than the venue can hold, on the floor where the show was held, the stairs literally jammed, nobody could go up or down, the handrail was kind of loose. I was afraid someone would fall, but in the end, it felt like I was at the Luz train station, unfortunately it was a big hassle. And also the organizers of the place left something to be desired, they brought several friends behind the stage and in front, a kind of backstage, so it ended up hindering those who were trying to see the show, unfortunately the experience wasn't so good, luckily Melody saved the night anyway!

I was at the establishment on March 21st and it was a very negative surprise. The place is extremely cramped and lacks the infrastructure to accommodate many people. In addition, the open bar offered is quite questionable, as there are only two waiters serving who knows how many people. You end up spending more time in line than enjoying the event. It's not worth it; the experience was terrible.

Wonderful service I went alone. I felt very welcome throughout the event. In addition, I danced a lot, and drank incredible and creative drinks just the way I wanted. I will definitely be back! 💖
