After a 13-year hiatus, Brazilian pop-rock band Kid Abelha returned to the stage in Fortaleza. The trio, consisting of Paula Toller, George Israel, and Bruno Fortunato, played their first live show in 13 years at the Centro de Formação Olímpica, a sports complex in southern Fortaleza. This performance marked the culmination of their national tour "Eu Tive um Sonho," which featured ten shows across Brazil.
Kid Abelha, known as "Kid Bee" in Portuguese, is an iconic 1980s and 1990s pop-rock band from Brazil, with hits such as "Como Eu Quero," "Grand Hotel," and "Fixação." The comeback tour, titled "Eu Tive um Sonho," which translates to "I Had a Dream," was inspired by a literal dream the band's lead singer Paula Toller had about the band resuming their live performances.
The Fortaleza show, the seventh date on the tour, was held on August 22, 2026, with gates opening at 6pm and the band starting at 9pm. Tickets were priced from 125 reais (approximately US$24) for half-price grandstand seats to 920 reais (approximately US$179) for full VIP packages. Due to Brazilian law, half-price "meia" tickets were reserved for students, seniors, teachers, and other specified groups, but foreign tourists did not qualify for this discounted rate.
The cheapest full-price ticket was 250 reais (US$49). The band's setlist included 30 songs, featuring their biggest hits along with some never-before-played live tracks. The tour will have three more dates following Fortaleza, with the next performances scheduled in Porto Alegre, Curitiba, and Florianópolis.
