In October 2025, Gala Cricri will conclude its artistic residency at Palácio do Grilo. These are the project’s final parties — and the last chance to dance through the immortal halls of this palace.
Described by The New York Times as “notably, a magnificent nocturnal hangout,” Gala Cricri has transformed the timeless halls of Palácio do Grilo into an immersive dancefloor, where music and performance intertwine among 18th-century frescoes. Under the direction of Venga Venga (Ricardo Don and Denny Azevedo), the project has, since 2022, hosted iconic parties such as New Year’s Eve, Masquerade, and Vralloween, as well as events by major brands and collectives. In 2023, Madonna chose it as the stage for her birthday celebration.
