Highly recommend!
Wonderful show. The technology used was amazing!! Pick-up at our hotel, and after the show, was prompt and very courteous! We did not have to worry about getting our own transportation. Our table was overlooking the stage so we had a great view. We did not do the dinner, just the show, so cannot comment on the food. I would recommend this for a nice evening out.

Roxy dinner show
The show was great, wonderful singing, dancing and music. The dinner for the money was just okay. The driver was on time for pickup and was at the door waiting after the show.🙂

Fun show that highlighted...
Fun show that highlighted the culture and many regions of Brazil. It was fast paced and the dancing and singing was enjoyable. Two-hour dinner was one hour too long, the wait was not worth it.

Captivating Culture Cut Short
This is an immersive and educational cultural expression of the history of Samba and Brazilian culture through dance and music, blending new and old genres. We thoroughly enjoyed this aspect of the event. The dress code is casual but I’d encourage attendees to dress celebratory to make it special. The Roxy theater is ornate and good for photo ops. The food was underwhelming though they tried to present it as upscale dining. Portions were small and selections limited any expanded options were on the pay per item menu. Beverages on the menu didn’t include all options, and you had to ask for water at a price.. The servers were disorganized and seemed to be distracted by the on-going seating as guest arrived. The theater experienced a power outage during the last 30 minutes of the show. There was little communication about what happened but it was clear after 10 minutes that it could not be fixed. Performers came out and did a final dance number that was clearly modified to close the night quickly. The show was scheduled to end at 11:30 and we left the theater at 11:05. Though apologetic there was no offer of a credit or voucher for not receiving what we paid for.

Great show full of the vibrancy of Brazil.
The show was great with the vibrancy of Brazil. The meal was average but overall well worth doing. The pre show started at 7.30pm with main event at 9.30pm, this was confusing as the ticket said 6.00pm start.

Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rio de Janeiro.
How much does Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro cost?
+
Prices start at $115 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rio de Janeiro usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rio de Janeiro is not rushed.
Is Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rio de Janeiro, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rio de Janeiro can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rio de Janeiro and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Brazilian Dinner Show: Cultural Experience in Rio de Janeiro start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rio de Janeiro within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rio de Janeiro?
+
On Outty we rank every Rio de Janeiro experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pedra da Gávea hike, your best experience in Rio, Favela Tour Rio de Janeiro - Vidigal Walking Tour by Russo Guide, Rio's Full Day: Selarón Steps, Christ & Sugarloaf – Tickets & Lunch Included. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rio de Janeiro?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rio de Janeiro?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
