Azucar Club Cubano
Latin America / Brazil / São Paulo
The “Azucar Club Cubano” opened in August 2000. The idea stemmed from Latin inspiration, with its vibrant and magnificent Caribbean music, leading to the opening of the first Latin club in São Paulo. To this day, it is recognized for its lively atmosphere and excellent service, where it enjoyed great success and continues to welcome all those who love Latin rhythms.
Among the rhythms played at “Azucar” are Merengue, Salsa, and Cumbia. It’s worth noting that Reggaeton and Bachata were added due to their popularity. All of these genres are provided by top Latin DJs, including Azucar Nelson Noce, Will Rosbon, Daniel Venezuela, and Julio Moracén. Both Brazilians and tourists visit “Azúcar,” so they specify a schedule of Latin rhythms to be played, as customers have different tastes. This way, you can enjoy the musical genre you want to dance to or listen to at the club that day. However, on Fridays and Saturdays, there’s a mix of Latin rhythms since those are the busiest days, marking the start of the weekend.
