Other artists remembered for a possible return to the line-up include Justin Bieber, who was at Rock in Rio in 2022, and Bruno Mars, who participated in the 2013 and 2024 editions. The audience shows interest in seeing these artists again at the event.

Blogger Théo Alves also joined the list of requests, requesting Madonna's presence at the next festival. The artist should be a regular fixture for 2028, especially after having packed Copacabana two years ago. Théo stated: "Madonna, come on, let's go, woman! Everyone here is crazy about you."
