While headliners like Foo Fighters, Elton John, and Twenty One Pilots will dominate the Palco Mundo stage, the festival's most promising acts will perform on the Supernova and Global Village stages. The Supernova stage, designed to discover new music, runs every day of the festival and features a mix of Brazilian and international acts, providing an ideal introduction to Brazilian music for expats. The Global Village stage, meanwhile, celebrates musical encounters across cultures, highlighting artists from Brazil and beyond. Throughout the festival, smaller stages offer shorter lines, closer views, and sets that attendees rave about the following year.",
