Overview
- The festival opened to the public on Friday, Sept. 4, and first‑day shows are underway with Foo Fighters closing the Palco Mundo just after midnight.
- Organizers expect about 100,000 people per day and roughly 700,000 attendees across the seven festival days, with 190 performances scheduled across seven stages and 91 hours of programming.
- A city‑led mobility plan is active: Jardim Oceânico runs 24‑hour metro service for event integration, a special BRT Expresso sells day tickets via the Jaé app for the R$29 round trip model, and QR codes and pulseiras validate return trips.
- Security and health resources are fully deployed, including OCR automatic plate readers at access points, hundreds of on‑duty agents, city camera monitoring, six medical posts and 16 ambulances inside the Cidade do Rock.
- On‑site operations prioritize speed and safety with cashless payments and refundable prepaid festival cards, sponsor virtual‑queue systems to cut physical lines, strict item rules at entry and live broadcasts across Multishow, Canal Bis and Globoplay.
