Rock in Rio 2026: see what worked and what fell short on the second-to-last day of festival

oglobo13 September 2026 at 06:00

The second-to-last day of Rock in Rio 2026 featured performances by Demi Lovato and Maroon 5 as the main highlights. Reporters from GLOBO newspaper covered the event from before the gates opened until after Adam Levine's show, the band's leader.

The weather favored the festival, as the rain broke exactly when the gates of the City of Rock opened on Friday and Saturday, contrary to the most pessimistic forecasts. The feat was humorously credited to São Pedro, Cacique Cobral, or chance.

The distribution of fans at Pedro Sampaio's show was another success, helping to compose the visual spectacle of fans in the City of Rock. The accessory ended up being used in all the shows of the night, contributing to the overall atmosphere of the event.

The cell phone signal worked better than in previous years, a significant improvement. However, the giveaway lines continue to congest the paths of those circulating through the event, remaining a point that needs improvement for future editions.

Why this matters

The article is of direct interest to readers who follow or intend to follow Rock in Rio, offering a practical summary of what worked well and what can frustrate those circulating through the event. For those at the festival, knowing that the giveaway lines are still a problem can influence route planning within the City of Rock. The coverage also serves as a reference for organizing future editions of the event.

Sculpture 'Saudade' leaves Galeão and goes to Marina da Glória, previously put up for sale

The sculpture "Saudade", 1.80m tall, created by artist Beto Gatti, was transferred from Tom Jobim International Airport, where it remained for four years, to the promenade of Axia Marina da Glória, in the south zone of Rio de Janeiro. The piece, which will be on display for a month in Guanabara Bay, is part of the new edition of the Monumental Arte na Marina da Glória project, opening this Sunday (13). Along with two other bronze sculptures by the same artist — all for sale, with 20% of the proceeds going to the Associação Saúde Criança — the work proposes a reflection on how screens keep us connected but not always close. The exhibition serves as a preview of the arrival of ArtRIO next week, while Gatti prepares a show on the same theme in London.
