Throughout his extraordinary six-decade career, the 81-year-old has shifted a staggering 250 million albums and singles globally, securing his status as one of history’s best-selling artists.

Roberta Medina, Executive Vice President of Rock in Rio Lisbon, commented: “Rock in Rio Lisbon has always been a stage for historic moments that stay in everyone’s memory. Legends Day is an invitation to celebrate life, a day to be together and sing in unison from the first to the last song.
“It’s a day that brings together great national and international legends who have shaped the stories of our lives and continue to move generations. Rock in Rio Lisbon is all about celebration, connection, emotion, and those timeless hits that give us chills when we sing them together.”
Taking place every two years across two June weekends, Rock in Rio Lisbon continues to cement itself as one of the planet’s most spectacular live music experiences. The 2026 instalment will see the City of Rock grow by more than 25,000 m², delivering enhanced entertainment zones, superior comfort and memories that’ll last a lifetime.
