Get into shape dancing wild at the Fosfobox in Copa

The Fosfobox is a new electronic club in Copacabana and there are already lots of enthusiasts buzzing around the club. If you are familiar with local celebrities you will be glad to know that Cabbet Araujo creates the evening program (he also worked in Bunker 94 and Lady of Iron).

The night usually starts just outside the Fosfobox, where there are two bars. One is more fancy, where you buy drinks in many colours, the other is a simple boteque which sell cheap beers.

Many Brazilians gather to talk and get in the right mood before entering. There is also entertainment in the angry neighbours throwing water and other smelly liquids at unfortunate victims below their windows.

The secret rule is to stay well below the roof at the building and never stay far out on the sidewalk!

The club itself is hidden, without any signs, located in the subsoil under a gallery of antiques. This induces a feeling of underground music. This is partially true and the visitors are usually savvy with the inner knowledge of electronic music. The House will be shaken all night long with rock, electric, house and different projects of live artists.

Fosfobox accommodates around 150 people each night and it is carefully arranged to give its visitors full enjoyment. Sofas are strategically located in places where people can talk to each other and have a drink. The air conditioner is very powerful and it works perfectly.

The Rio night club is a new addition to the Copa scene that already has a loyal following. It's a mixed club, and loads of fun. The sound qulity is very good and the club is very careful to keep it that way. Here you can lisen to intereseting projects pulled out by live artists that want your atention. None of these artists are new to the scene and you will soon become familiar with them. Djs Luca and Liana Padilha are among these artists and they will do their best to entertain you.

If you are lucky you can even catch a theme party. One of a significant succes is the years 80 music theme playing Depeche Mode, New Order, Soft Cell, Human League, Cures, Duran Duran and many others. The pricing is decent and you have a wide choices for drinks.

You can find Fosfobox at the following in Copacabana at the addres:

The best day to go to fosfobox is Thursday!
