Shows in Copacabana
The performances in Copacabana are part of an effort by the city council to promote “Celebration May”, an annual event that would bring, every first Saturday in May, a major international performance to the city.
The proposal gained strength after the success of the Madonnaheld in May 2024, which brought together around 1.6 million people in Copacabana and generated a significant impact on the local economy.
According to a study by the Municipal Secretariat for Urban and Economic Development (SMDUE), the singer’s show generated R$ 293.4 million, which boosted commerce, tourism and the city’s hotel network.
In addition to Lady Gaganames like Beyonce, U2 and even a hologram of michael jackson were mentioned by the mayor of Rio de Janeiro as possible attractions for the so-called Celebration May.
The artist’s last show in Brazil took place in 2012 with the tour Born This Way Ball Tourwhich passed through São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre. In 2017, she gave life to memes by announcing that participation in Rock in Rio was canceled on the day of the show.
