First LGBTQIAPN+ cultural center in Rio inaugurates historic three-story townhouse in the central region with Linn da Quebrada show

extra14 September 2026 at 21:29

Queerioca, the first reference LGBTQIAPN+ cultural center in Rio de Janeiro, began a new phase with the move to a historic three-story townhouse at Rua da Quitanda, number 81, in the central region of the city. Previously, the project occupied Arco do Teles since 2024 and now expands both its structure and its proposal to offer culture, welcome and services to the LGBTQIAPN+ population.

The move was supported by the Reviver Centro project and the Municipal Secretary of Culture, happening amid the growth of the programming and activities developed by the venue. The new address was designed to bring together different languages and experiences in one space.

The colonial property will feature an exhibition room, bookstore, gastronomic area and a future cinema-theater. A curiosity that crosses the building's history is the presence of a pole dance bar left behind by the nightclub that previously operated at the location.

The structure will also continue hosting ballrooms, voguing balls, music and cinema, with a show by Linn da Quebrada marking the inauguration of the new space.

Why this matters

Rio de Janeiro's LGBTQIAPN+ population gains a permanent reference cultural space in the Downtown area, with expanded infrastructure for events, exhibitions and services. The move to a historic property, supported by public authorities, represents the consolidation of a community cultural facility that previously operated temporarily, expanding access to cultural and welcoming activities in the central region.

The Gávea Residents and Friends Association had requested a reassessment of the license, questioning the expected impacts on the region. According to the president of Amagávea, Luiza Carneiro, the opposition was never to the event itself, but to the choice of address, considered inadequate by the community.
