Of the ways to spend $25 a head for an evening out in those cities these events stack up well. The money goes to a good cause and will be swag to take home. I would attend the NYC one, but that would require spending a weekend in NYC.

In Rio there will be a free VIP Lounge open 6 pm-2 am August 11-14 at the Copacabana Hotel. Cardholders and up to 3 guests can enter for free and no advance registration required, see full details here.
