Rock in Rio is a recurring music festival originating in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It later branched into other locations such as Lisbon, Madrid and Las Vegas.
Eight incarnations of the festival have been held in Rio de Janeiro, in 1985, 1991, 2001, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019, eight in Lisbon, in 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2018, three in Madrid in 2008, 2010 and 2012 and one in Las Vegas, in 2015.

In 2011, Rock in Rio returned to its original location, Rio de Janeiro, with a new line-up of singers and groups.

Live Nation stated that it intended to "[integrate] their industry expertise" into their overall business.In 2022, two editions are already confirmed.
