On August 26, 2026, iconic Brazilian musician Caetano Veloso inaugurated Curitiba's newest music venue, Cine Lido, with an intimate concert. The 84-year-old Veloso performed a set spanning six decades of his songwriting, including classics like Sozinho and Leãozinho, in a room designed for close listening, with a capacity of around 1,650 people.
Tickets for the event ranged from R$450 to R$1,300, indicating a premium pricing strategy for a club-scale night. Following Veloso's performance on August 26, fellow MPB artist Marisa Monte took the stage the next day, confirming the venue's focus on historic artists and their legacy. Veloso's calendar for the year included shows in São Paulo, Rio, and Florianópolis, but the Cine Lido's opening night marked a return to smaller, more intimate performances that align with his artistic reputation.
The venue, located in central Curitiba, fills a structural gap in the region's touring circuit, offering a space for historic artists to perform in an environment focused on listening rather than spectacle.
