The Clube de Choro de Brasília is an association dedicated to promoting and disseminating Choro. Located on the Monumental Axis, it is next to the Brasília Planetarium, and the Ulysses Guimarães Convention Center, whose cloakroom was transformed into the club's first headquarters. After years of neglect in the 1980s, the headquarters was revitalized and the club regained its relevance, with a new headquarters designed by Oscar Niemeyer completed in 2011. In 2008, the Clube de Choro de Brasília was listed as intangible heritage of Brasília. It has held more than 2,500 shows, and its new headquarters, called Espaço Cultural do Choro, also houses the Raphael Rabello School of Choro, the first of its kind in Brazil.

Arena BRB Mané Garrincha, formerly Estádio Nacional de Brasília Mané Garrincha, also known as Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha, Estádio Nacional de Brasília, Arena Mané Garrincha or simply Mané Garrincha, is a football stadium and multipurpose arena, located in Brasília, in the Distrito Federal. The stadium is one of several structures that make up the Ayrton Senna Sports Complex, which also includes the Nilson Nelson Gymnasium and Autódromo de Brasília, among others. Opened in 1974, the stadium had a total capacity of 45,200 people. After having reconstruction completed between 2010 and 2013, the capacity was increased to 72,788 people, making it the second-largest stadium in Brazil after the Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro and one of the largest in South America. It was re-inaugurated on 18 May 2013, following renovations completed in preparation for the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World Cup. The original architect was Ícaro de Castro Mello. The project was completed at a cost of US$900 million, against an original budget of US$300 million, making the stadium the third-most expensive football stadium in the world after England's Wembley Stadium and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha is owned by the Department of Sports, Physical Education and Recreation of Distrito Federal. The name is a homage to the football legend Mané Garrincha (1933–1983), who won the 1958 and 1962 World Cup with the Brazil national team. The current name is the result of a naming rights deal between the government of the Federal District and Banco de Brasília.
