Overview
- Foo Fighters closed the festival's first night on Friday, Sept. 4, with a long, well-received set that mixed classic hits and a dedication of "Aurora" to late drummer Taylor Hawkins while showcasing drummer Ilan Rubin.
- Sepultura delivered a farewell set on the metal day that focused on material recorded from 1998 onward as part of a tour that concludes in November.
- Avenged Sevenfold was scheduled as the Palco Mundo headliner for the second night with a 00:05 start time and followed an evening that included Bring Me The Horizon and Machine Gun Kelly.
- Heavy clouds and rain on the metal day forced many fans to use ponchos and changed the atmosphere at several sets, but performances continued across stages.
- Rock in Rio's multiplatform broadcast plan remains active with live coverage on Multishow, Canal BIS, Globoplay and nightly TV Globo specials as the festival continues through Sept. 13.
