Rock in Rio Lisboa 2026 draws sold‑out crowds, major brand activations and headline shows

The 11th edition of Rock in Rio Lisboa runs on 20‑21 and 27‑28 June 2026 at Parque Tejo, Lisbon, with the venue’s capacity expanded to 100,000 fans per day. Headliners include Katy Perry and Linkin Park, supported by acts such as Grandson, The Pretty Reckless, Cypress Hill and numerous Portuguese and international artists.

Tickets for the first two days sold out immediately, prompting live broadcasts on Portugal’s SIC channels, which will air concerts and behind‑the‑scenes coverage across SIC Mulher, SIC Caras and SIC Radical.

Several brands have set up dedicated experiences: Linkin Park partnered with Pastéis de Belém for a “LINKINATA” activation; Justinline showcased transparent orthodontic aligners; El Corte Inglés installed large‑scale immersive booths and invited youth from the APPACDM association; FC Porto created a fan zone displaying its national‑champion trophy. The festival also features a giant Ferris wheel, aerial shows, a football arena streaming World Cup matches, and extensive public‑transport and shuttle services.

Organisers advise attendees to use public transport, note the extended metro service and dedicated Carris shuttles, and remind visitors that the site operates cash‑less with ticket‑linked cards.
