Thank you again for your knowledable input as usual!
Would we still have a chance to get tickets when we arrive on December 28?
Wouldn't it be better (and cheaper) to buy tickets now?
Does La Maison have views of the beach, maybe even a rooftop bar?
What makes you choose the beach over a party at a bar?
From what I've read it gets extremely crowded, meaning you'd have to be on the beach many hours before midnight, with lots of pickpockets and where you might not even be able to buy (safe) drinks?
I'm not a big fan of massive outdoor parties in major Western cities because I feel it's always way too crowded and it doesn't really feel safe.
I would assume it would be even worse in Rio?
(Even though I understand that some people may like being part of a large, partying crowd.)
