Meeting tradicional do English Brazil para a prática do inglês em encontros presenciais. Esse é um meeting que já é tradicional. Nos reunimos sempre em um local público para praticar conversação em inglês, e ficamos do lado de uma cafeteria para que você possa comprar o seu café enquanto conversa com a gente. O objetivo é criar um ambiente descontraído e amigável para que todos possam praticar o inglês sem pressão. Não importa se você é iniciante ou avançado, todos são bem-vindos! Não é necessário confirmar presença, e o valor é de graça, também não cobramos nada para participar. Apenas apareça, mostre interesse, e alguém irá te convidar para puxar uma cadeira para perto da mesa para praticarmos. Tradicionalmente nos reunimos sempre às sextas-feiras, dentro do Shopping Center 3 (ao lado da estação Consolação do metrô), no térreo, em frente à cafeteria Havanna Café. Sempre das 20h00 às 22h00, quando o shopping fecha. Então, se quiser praticar a conversação em inglês em um ambiente amigável e sem precisar estabelecer nenhum compromisso, este é o local certo! \-\-\- And foreigners are also welcome! We Brazilians always have a very healthy curiosity to learn about your ideas, your experiences, and the differences in customs and languages. We are also, by nature, very willing to help foreigners feel more at ease here in Brazil. It's also a great opportunity to network and meet locals who can make you feel at home. We always meet on Fridays, inside Shopping Center 3 (next to Consolação subway station), on the ground floor, in front of the Havanna Café. Always from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM, when the mall closes.

Para fechar a semana, nada melhor do fazer a resenha neste bar tradicional de SP tomando uma cerveja gelada ou o melhor Cajú Amigo de São Paulo. ** Reserva para 10 lugares **O bar fica próximo do metrô Consolação e não possuem comanda individual.** ⚠️⚠️⚠️ **Peço que mantenham o nome na lista somente se realmente for ao evento.** ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Cheguem no horário por causa da mesa.

SUJEITO A LOTAÇÃO MAXIMA DE 1500 PESSOAS Criado em 2022, o Cortejo de Luzes é uma das criações originais do grupo Unidos do Swing, coletivo paulistano que se destaca por resgatar e reinventar o universo do jazz de rua. Desta vez, essa linguagem ganha uma dimensão visual e sensorial inédita: resgatando a magia dos cortejos de luzes ao redor do mundo, os artistas ocupam o espaço com figurinos e instrumentos iluminados, criando uma atmosfera intergaláctica inesquecível, uma verdadeira festa de luzes, sons e emoções, com malabarismo e manipulação de objetos de luz.

**Hermes e Renato com o bloco "Unidos do Caralho a Quatro" apresentam: Samba, Suor e Sacanagem** **Local: Jai Club** **Tipo de evento: Comédia/Carnaval/Nostalgia** Prepare-se para uma noite histórica e caótica. Hermes & Renato traz ao palco o humor mais ácido, nonsense e politicamente incorreto do Brasil, com os criadores de personagens, esquetes e momentos que marcaram gerações, principalmente nos anos 2000 na MTV Brasil. No show, eles desfilam clássicos, improvisos, interações com o público e aquela zoeira pesada que só eles sabem fazer. É gargalhada atrás de gargalhada, nostalgia pura misturada com críticas escrachadas e um clima de liberdade total. **Informações do evento e compra de Ingresso** (atualmente no terceiro lote, no valor de R$80,00 + taxas): https://www.sympla.com.br/evento/unidos-do-caralho-a-quatro-com-hermes-renato-na-jai-club/3277696 \- Próximo à Estação Ana Rosa da Linha Azul do Metrô; \- Evento sem reserva de mesas; \- Consumo individual\.
