Drop bags at Galeão Airport or Rodoviária before you move on

The Galeão Express BRT runs non-stop between Galeão International Airport and Terminal Intermodal Gentileza, taking approximately 25 minutes. It provides a fast airport-to-city connection.

At Rodoviária do Rio, a third-party guarda-volumes operates in the lower arrival area. This luggage-storage service is available from 5 a.m. to midnight during low-traffic periods, and operates 24 hours during high-traffic periods. Small items cost R$ 15,00 per day, giving long-distance bus passengers an on-site left-luggage option at the terminal.

For metro transfers, MetrôRio prohibits luggage or other volumes wider than 40 cm or longer than 45 cm on its trains. Check both measurements before carrying bags onto the metro, as either limit can prevent travel with the item.

Leave bags behind at Rio's museums and sights

At the Museu Histórico Nacional, backpacks and other volumes are barred from exhibition spaces, although free public lockers are provided. MAM Rio requires bags, backpacks and folders to stay in its lockers when visiting the Research and Documentation area. The Aquário Marinho do Rio prohibits suitcases. Its paid lockers include GG units for up to one piece of hand luggage. At Casa Roberto Marinho, bags and items larger than 35 cm must go in the provided lockers.

The restrictions differ in both access and capacity. A suitcase is unsuitable for the Aquário, while Casa Roberto Marinho applies a clear size limit. Check each venue’s rule before carrying a larger bag across Rio, since the available locker may not accommodate it.

Late-night and 24/7 storage during Festival do Rio

Stasher has 29 luggage-storage points in Rio de Janeiro that stay open late, plus 3 that are open 24/7. The late-opening locations fit evening screenings during the 28th Festival do Rio, scheduled for 1–11 October 2026. The 24/7 points also cover early-morning travel around the festival dates, without restricting storage to standard daytime hours.

RioMarket, the festival’s business programme, runs from 1–10 October 2026. Its dates overlap almost the entire festival, so the same late and round-the-clock opening options apply across both programmes. This makes left luggage in Rio de Janeiro workable for schedules that extend beyond the daytime.

If plans change before drop-off, a cancelled booking can receive a 50% refund or a 100% coupon. That offers flexibility if screening or RioMarket timings shift.
