Rock In Rio Lisboa organisers have revealed their dates for next year.
Like so many events, this year’s edition has been cancelled, but plans are already well underway for 2021 and the two weekends of June 19th-20th and 26th-27th have been duly confirmed.
“Dreaming and making things happen are two of the great characteristics of Rock in Rio and what makes it possible to overcome any challenge,” a statement from the festival’s Vice President Roberta Medina opens. “Even now in this unprecedented moment, which affects the majority of all people in Portugal and worldwide, we cannot fail to do so.”
“Aware of this reality, we have studied over the last few days the various scenarios that will enable us to continue to bring joy to people, and create unforgettable moments.Of the various options evaluated, all would involve assembling the festival at a time that we believe will not be possible yet (May), so we come to the decision to change the dates of the 9th edition of Rock in Rio Lisboa to the 19th, June 20, 26 and 27, 2021, with the certainty that this will be an even more magical and special edition.”
