The new screen at Rock in Rio's Palco Mundo was considered the festival's biggest star, measuring 107 meters in length and 31.5 meters in height, dimensions never before seen in Brazil. The request for the installation was made by someone (section cut in the article).

Several artists took advantage of the screen to realize their most ambitious visual fantasies. Elton John alternated short films with live images, while Gilberto Gil took a pictorial journey through his over 60 years of career. The English band Bring Me The Horizon plunged their live show into a violent game.

Barão Vermelho also used the feature in their show with the original lineup, bringing Cazuza (1958-1990) on to sing "Todo amor que houver nessa vida." The screen allowed artists to deploy their creative visions in an unprecedented way on the Brazilian scene.
