Rio de Janeiro music events July‑August 2026

Entities: Bernardo Ramos · Thiago Amud · Gravadora Rocinante · Sergio Krakowski · Recipiente Porongo

Overview

In late July 2026 Rio de Janeiro saw a series of high‑profile music events. On August 7, composer‑violist Thiago Amud was slated to perform at the Recipiente Porongo venue in Botafogo as part of an artistic occupation curated by Sergio Krakowski and Bernardo Ramos, with the concert series running through August 21.

Two days later, arrocha singer Thiago Aquino announced the filming of his audiovisual project “Nas Alturas” on August 2 in the Rocinha favela, followed by a full concert for local residents. The project, previously held in São Paulo, marked its latest chapter in Rio’s community‑focused music scene.

Together these announcements reflect a vibrant period of cultural activity across both formal venues and community spaces in Rio during August 2026.
