About this tip
Rex Jazz Bar on Rua Sá e Albuquerque in Jaraguá hosts concerts across genres, and its 2026 calendar included a psychedelic rock night in July and another show in August. Gigs are one-off events rather than a fixed weekly schedule, so check the venue's social media or Sympla for dates and buy tickets ahead. Jaraguá is the old port quarter, so it pairs well with an early evening walk.
