Alok Rave The World in Rio 2026: Tickets and Event Guide
Published on November 11, 2026. Updated on November 11, 2026.
Alok brings the Rave The World project to the Museum of Tomorrow, in Rio de Janeiro, on December 30, 2026, with the gates opening at 9 p.m. The party was announced as an experience featuring around 10 hours of music, combining rave culture aesthetics with technology, a large-scale stage and one of the most recognizable settings in Praça Mauá.
The event takes place two days before New Year’s Eve and is likely to attract people who will already be in Rio for the holiday. This makes transportation, accommodation and planning for the early hours of the morning just as important as the ticket.

What is Rave The World?
The project was created as an international concept and made its world debut in London, at O2 Academy Brixton. In Rio, the production presents it as a meeting point for rave culture, contemporary technology, freedom, connection and the dance-floor experience.
The lineup may also include other DJs alongside Alok. The running order and individual set times had not yet been fully announced at the time of the latest update, so artist schedules should not be treated as final before the official announcement.

How to get to the Museum of Tomorrow
The VLT is one of the most convenient options for Praça Mauá. The metro plus VLT, buses and ride-hailing apps also work. Since the event ends in the early hours of the morning and takes place during New Year’s week, don’t rely solely on public transportation without confirming the day’s special operating arrangements.
How to get back in the early hours
| Option | Advantage | Keep in mind |
|---|---|---|
| Uber/99 | Simplest option for groups | Surge pricing and roadblocks |
| Taxi | Good alternative in the early hours | High demand |
| Public transportation | Cheapest option | Confirm special operating arrangements |
Where to stay
Staying in Centro or Porto Maravilha reduces travel time, but for general sightseeing, Flamengo, Botafogo and Copacabana are usually more versatile.

For visitors from out of town
Arriving in Rio by December 29 is a better strategy than arriving on the day of the event. Set aside December 30 for rest, a light lunch and an early trip to Praça Mauá. After the party, keep your schedule light on December 31 before New Year’s Eve.
