Kiss nightclub fire
The
Kiss nightclub fire
started between 2:00 and 2:30 (
BRST
) on 27 January 2013 in
Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul
, Brazil, killing 242 people and injuring at least 630 others. It is considered the second most-devastating fire disaster in the
history of Brazil
—surpassed only by the
Great North American Circus fire
of December 1961, which killed 503 people in
Niterói
, and the deadliest nightclub fire since the
December 2000 fire
that killed 309 people in
Luoyang
, China. It is also the third-deadliest nightclub fire in history, behind the
Luoyang Christmas fire
and the
Cocoanut Grove fire
in 1942.
