BRT. The show will be open to the public on a first-come, first-serve basis for those arriving at Copacabana Beach near the Belmond Copacabana Palace Hotel. “It’s a great honor to be asked to sing for Rio–for my whole career the fans in Brazil have been part of the lifeblood of the little monsters,” Gaga, who last performed in Brazil in 2012, wrote on X on Friday. “I’ve been dying to come perform for you for years and was heartbroken when I had to cancel years ago because I was hospitalized.

Your understanding that I needed that time to heal meant the world to me. I am now coming back and I feel better than ever and am working so hard to make sure this show is one you will never forget.

Get ready for MAYHEM on the beach.” Gaga’s Copacabana Beach performance marks the launch of Todo Mundo no Rio, a new initiative created by Bonus Track and presented by Corona to highlight the impact of entertainment in Rio de Janeiro.
