Missing Miley Cyrus? Understand why Rock in Rio 2026 failed to put together a 100% female day

oglobo13 September 2026 at 07:30

Rock in Rio 2026 failed to assemble a 100% female day on its main stages lineup, unlike what happened in 2024, when there was a "Dia Delas" (Women's Day) with female artists such as Iza, Ivete Sangalo, Katy Perry, Karol G, and Tyla on the Mundo and Sunset stages. This time, the plan did not work out, and the duo Twenty One Pilots is the only male act on the lineup for those stages on the festival's closing day.

Everything indicates that the event's production was initially betting on Miley Cyrus as the headliner for the night. Founder and president of Rock World, the company that produces the festival, Roberto Medina, did not deny in an interview with GLOBO in May that the American's name was "ruled out" at that time.

Why this matters

Rock in Rio audiences in Lisbon and Brazil closely follow the festival's evolution, and the failure to maintain the 2024 initiative may impact perceptions of the event's commitment to female representation. Readers interested in festival programming and music inclusion are directly affected, since the absence of Miley Cyrus as a headliner changes the experience of the audience that was looking forward to a night of great artistic magnitude.
