Audience seeks official and licensed products at Rock in Rio 2026

cbn5 September 2026 at 11:00

The Rock in Rio 2026 audience showed great interest in official and licensed festival products already on the first day of the event. Many attendees go to the festival not only to watch shows, but also to seek out activations, other attractions, giveaways, and make purchases. The merchandise store located near the Sunset Stage recorded long lines throughout much of the day.

Fans also went looking to secure official shirts or caps from artists who are part of the event's lineup. Among the most sought-after products on the first day were items from Foo Fighters, who was the big Friday attraction. The band Avenged Sevenfold, performing on Saturday (5th), also registered high demand for licensed products.

Eduardo Oliveira, a fan of the Friday headliners (4th), said he entered the event and went directly to the store area. According to him, he had seen the products online and thought the shirts were beautiful. Since there was no official Foo Fighters shirt available, he decided to buy directly at the festival store.

On first day of Rock in Rio only Foo Fighters used LED screen; decision is up to each artist, festival says

On the first day of Rock in Rio 2026, the new Mundo Stage, which features an LED screen of 104 meters in length and 2,400m² of screen area, was barely used by artists, with only the Foo Fighters, the headliner of the night, exploring the resource significantly at the beginning of the show, displaying a practically complete image on the screen that generated a positive reaction from the audience present. The festival stated that the decision to use or not use the screen is up to each artist, who would have freedom to play or experiment with the space. The other bands of the day, such as Nova Twins, The Hives, and Rise Against, did not use the resource in a significant way.
