Animation nights at Casino Lisboa are distinguished by innovative live music proposals.
In January, the Arena Lounge multi-purpose stage hosts from Wednesday to Saturday Miss Manouche, Ru Vasconcellos, Chronicle News, Kilôko and Dynamite.

Miss Manouche is part of Casino Lisboa’s New Year’s Eve entertainment program. The band debuts, precisely on New Year’s Eve, continuing the performance cycle until January 4th. The swinging rhythm of the 1920s, the fiery passion of jazz and the compelling figure of Django Reinhardt are the calling card of this dynamic quartet.
