Organisers of this year’s Rock in Rio also revealed behind‑the‑scenes details, noting the hiring of Korean translators to support the K‑pop group Stray Kids. Artists have requested items such as aromatic candles, essential oils and even a hundred hangers for dressing rooms. The festival continues to broaden its line‑up with contemporary genres like trap and K‑pop, underscoring its aim to blend Brazil’s musical heritage with global trends.
