Main music festivals in Brazil have a distinct approach in various senses, from experience to lineup assembly
Two of the largest festivals in Brazil, Rock in Rio and Lollapaloozaare promoted by the same company: Rock world. The company is also responsible for The Townthat, like Lolla, happens in São Paulo.
However, there are differences in the organization between the pair of events cited in the first sentence of this text. In an interview with Lucas Brêda for the Folha de S. Paulothe artistic director of Lollapalooza Brasil, Marcelo Beraldoexplained the distinct approach to the event that is under his care.
Initially, Beraldo points out that Lolla seeks to offer a “most complete festival experience”With more stages and attractions scattered. In addition, Rock in Rio and The Town have a budget“much larger”That the event created in the United States in the 1990s – and exported to Brazil in the early 2010 – as well as a Focus on Headliners and Creation of themed days by genres.
The director comments:
“In Lollapalooza, you go to see a little of everything. One hour you are on stage, another time at another. So much so that most tickets sold are from ‘Pass’, which entitles you to three days. Rock in Rio does not sell ‘pass’. They only sell tickets to separate days.”
Also according to the executive, Lollapalooza is already working on the lineup of the 2026 edition. According to him, there are two right names, both of commercial success in recent times: one of hip hop and one that moves between pop and rock.
