    ★★★★★Edited 2 years ago

    very nice location for all sorts of events, great atmosphere, absolutely recommended 👍🏻

  • Guano Zambelli Barbosa

    ★★★★★8 years ago

    Nice place, although they brought 3 top Djs(Atmozfears, Brennan Heart and Coone) it was not overcrowded. The place is good, the bar service was quick without queues and the ticket was a bargain considering that were 3 excellent DJs and each one played 1 and a half hour. The location is also very good as it is really easy to go with public transportation or even walking. The lasers and the space display were also really good with some higher places were was possible to small people see the stage. The sound system waa also good. The only cons were that it was extremely hot and the screen was not used at its best.
