What makes Tunnel stand out

Tunnel opened on 23 July 1992 in Morro dos Ingleses in Bela Vista, deliberately away from Jardins. The club is in a 1950s house that has been converted and renovated again and again: with a balcony above the mezzanine, glass ceilings and a twelve-metre bar.

The three dance floors play different music styles, from current pop to 80s hits, plus drag performances and boxes. Before 1 am there’s hardly anything going on; those who stay dance until morning.

Atmosphere and crowd

The crowd is colourfully mixed and queer, with locals and travellers meeting here. Many regulars have been coming for decades. The DJs, the shows and the cosy, rambling atmosphere get praise.
