Madonna is set to perform her biggest show ever in Rio de Janeiro at Copacabana Beach on May 4. The free concert marks Madonna’s first show in Brazil since 2012. It will be a “first come, first serve” basis and no tickets will be necessary. Sponsored by Itaú Apresenta, the show will be broadcasted live on TV Globo.
The “Celebration” tour still has US dates before the Brazilian show. The tour was postponed from its original start date in July of 2023 following Madonna’s life-threatening bacterial infection. She has since recovered and has been performing with special guests such as Julia Fox, Cardi B, and Stella McCartney.
Madonna’s tour stopped in London, which was rated a five-star affair by NME, stating that the tour was a reminder that she is not just a pop star but a cultural force that changed the world by going against societal expectations. Madonna has also made headlines for accidentally criticizing a fan using a wheelchair for not standing up, for which she immediately apologized. Kylie Minogue and Madonna have even hinted at collaborating after duetting together for International Women’s Day.
Madonna’s “Celebration” tour continues to be a significant event as this free show solidifies its mark in history. Fans will be able to enjoy Madonna’s huge repertoire and will be reminded of her impact on music culture. Her music has continued to cross generations, and her performances show her captivating presence on stage. This legendary artist shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon, and we’re excited to see what she has in store for us next
