It is a strong option for progressive rock fans who want to hear familiar songs in a completely different format. The evening setting at Museu do Amanhã also makes it a visually striking experience.
Worth noting: Fever states that entry is not allowed after the performance begins. Since seating is first come, first served within each zone, arriving early also gives you a better choice of seats.

How to get to Museu do Amanhã
Museu do Amanhã is located at Praça Mauá, 1, in Centro. The museum’s official guidance is to take the VLT Line 1 and get off at Parada dos Museus, about 200 meters from the entrance.
VLT
This is the simplest way to reach Praça Mauá without relying on parking.
Metro
The Uruguaiana station is one of the options recommended by Museu do Amanhã. Depending on where you are coming from, you can walk from there or combine the journey with the VLT.
Train and ferries
Those arriving via Central do Brasil can connect to the VLT. Visitors coming from Niterói by ferry arrive at Praça XV and can continue through the central area.
Car
Museu do Amanhã states that it does not have its own parking. There are private parking lots nearby, but for timed events, public transportation usually reduces the risk of arriving late.

Safety tips for Praça Mauá
Praça Mauá is an important tourist and cultural area, but things change considerably once daytime activity dies down. For evening sessions, it is best to avoid improvising your trip back.
- Decide in advance whether you will return by VLT, taxi or rideshare.
- Avoid standing on the sidewalk with your phone out while deciding on your route.
- Wait for your rideshare in a busy area and check the license plate and driver.
- If you are unfamiliar with Centro at night, opt for short, direct journeys.
- If you are in a group, agree on a meeting point before entering the concert.

| Bring a light jacket | Indoor spaces may have strong air conditioning. |
