With emotions close to the surface, Jão brings his Memórias Póstumas tour to Mineirinho for a show designed to make you feel everything at full intensity. If someone from the past comes to mind, look beside you and pay attention to the present.

If you are looking for a night with a touch of magical realism, you have found the right place. This 1897 townhouse has become a bar inspired by writer Gabriel García Márquez.
