Rock in Rio announces Black Eyed Peas and Calvin Harris; see full line-up

Rock in Rio announced, this Saturday (30), the rest of the attractions that were missing to complete the line-up for this year's edition. The highlights were Calvin Harris and the group Black Eyed Peas, who will perform on September 6th in Cidade do Rock.

This will be the first time that the Scottish DJ will perform at Brazil's main music festival. Previously, he was at two editions of Rock in Rio outside Brazil: in Madrid, in 2012; and in Las Vegas, in 2016. The date will also feature Nelly, Barão Vermelho (Encontro Formação Original), Ne-Yo, Jota Quest plays Tim Maia, BaianaSystem and Calema.

Rock in Rio also confirmed that Halsey, Lola Young and Ivete Sangalo are joining Twenty One Pilots on the list of Palco Mundo attractions for September 13th. On the same day, the Sunset Stage will have Zara Larsson, Marina Sena invites Céu, Joelma invites Viviane Batidão and Carol Biazin invites Joyce Alane.

Lola Young will even make her debut on Brazilian soil. She was scheduled to perform at Lollapalooza Brasil this year, but had to cancel her trip to Brazil after fainting on stage. Since then, the British singer has undergone rehabilitation and returned to the stage in early 2026.

Pre-sale of tickets starts on Tuesday (2) and will only be available to Rock in Rio Club members and Itaú customers. General ticket sales begin on June 8th. Prices range from R$435 (half price) to R$870 (full price).
