The Rock in Rio 2026 festival hosted Elton John as the main act on Monday (7), bringing together an audience marked by a great mix of generations. The event featured young friends, children accompanied by their parents, and long-time fans of the English singer.

Dora Neves is one of the oldest fans present, marking her eighth Elton John show. She came to the festival accompanied by two friends, emphasizing that this time the emotion is special, as the singer announced his retirement and this may be his last performance in Brazil.

According to her, the expectation is huge because there is an additional emotion on this occasion. The fans arrived early at the venue to guarantee a good view of the show and experience the complete show experience.

The event also featured newer fans, like friends João and Gabriel, demonstrating that Elton John's music can cross generations and maintain its appeal with young audiences.
