Rock in Rio 2026: show times for this Saturday, 12

Rock in Rio 2026 arrives this Saturday, 12, on its penultimate day in the City of Rock, located in the Olympic Park, in Rio de Janeiro. The festival’s concert schedules were released by the organization — see below. The program brings together national and international attractions, especially Maroon 5, which closes the night at the World Stage.

In addition to the main shows, the event offers interactive experiences and digital facilities for the public. The programming is also available through the official app, available for iOS and Android. As a novelty of this edition, it is also possible to share the agenda created in the app directly on Instagram, facilitating meetings between friends and the organization of the group before entering the City of Rock.

Stage World: main attractions and schedules

The Stage World concentrates the shows of greatest popular appeal. From 3:30 p.m., the audience will give the presentation of Criolo, Amaro Freitas and Dino D'Santiago, a combination that mixes rap, jazz and African music. Then, at 5:50 p.m., the Gilsons invite Daniela Mercury and Olodum to a meeting of generations of Bahian music.

Later, at 8:10 p.m., João Gomes takes to the stage with the Brazilian Orchestra, uniting the piseiro to the symphonic sound. The closure is on account of Maroon 5, whose schedule was not detailed in the official disclosure, but the expectation is that the American band takes the stage after 10 pm. The source did not detail the length of each show.

Sunset Stage: Musical Diversity in Focus

At the Sunset Stage, the programming begins at 15:50 with Carol Biazin inviting Joyce Alane, two voices of the new MPB. The mix of styles promises to please those who seek more intimate sounds. The presentation should last about an hour, but the source did not detail the exact time.

At 9:05 pm, the Dawn Patrol project brings together Maz, Antdot, Riascode & Bakka for an electronic music performance. The timetable coincides with the show of João Gomes at the World Stage, requiring the public to choose between the attractions. The organization did not say if there would be simultaneous transmission on the screens.

Official application: planning and interaction

The Rock in Rio 2026 application consolidates itself as an essential tool for the public. In addition to the schedules, the app receives the full map of the City of Rock, information about activations of partner brands, schedules of the show The Flight and the option of pre-purchase of drinks. Pre-purchase avoids queues and allows you to make better use of the intervals between shows.

The sharing of the agenda on Instagram is one of the most commented news. With a few taps, the user can send their personalized schedule to friends, making it easier to logistic dating. The feature reduces the need for individual messages and helps keep the group synchronized during the event.

Structure of the City of Rock and practical tips

The City of Rock, in the Olympic Park, has food areas, toilets and hydration points distributed throughout the space. The map available in the app indicates the exact location of each service, in addition to the inputs and outputs. The organization recommends that the public download the app before arriving at the site, as the internet signal can oscillate in areas of great concentration.

For those who want to watch the shows of the World Stage, the tip is to arrive early and ensure a good positioning. The change of stages requires walks of up to 15 minutes, depending on the flow of people. The source did not detail the audience capacity per area, but the festival historically receives more than 100,000 people per day.

Cultural impact and closure expectations

The penultimate day of Rock in Rio 2026 reinforces the festival’s vocation to unite genres and generations. The presence of Criolo, Daniela Mercury, João Gomes and Maroon 5 in the same line-up illustrates the diversity of the programming. The curatorship seeks to cater from the classical rock fan to the pop and electronic music audience.

On Sunday, 13, the festival closes its edition with attractions not yet disclosed in this matter. The expectation is that the organization will maintain the standard of big names and immersive experiences. The public can follow the news through the official website and social networks of the event.

For those who will be in the City of Rock this Saturday, the recommendation is to plan the agenda in advance, use the application to map the schedules and share the schedule with friends. Thus, the experience becomes more organized and profitable, from the first show to the closure with Maroon 5.
