Rock in Rio Lisboa faces its final weekend with Lola Índigo, 21 Savage, and Central Cee as headliners. The event has already gathered 200,000 people at Parque Tejo and concludes on June 27 and 28. For attendees, it is an opportunity to enjoy concerts and attractions, with some tickets still available. The festival offers a varied experience of music and leisure for those who can attend.
Sound and lighting logistics in a venue with 200,000 attendees 🎵
Parque Tejo deploys a line array sound system with highly directional speakers to avoid overlap between the four main stages. The lighting uses low-consumption LED technology and DMX control to synchronize effects with performances. The data network relies on fiber optics and redundant servers that manage streaming and giant screens. The entire electrical setup is powered by state-of-the-art generators that reduce emissions, a requirement of the venue for massive events.
The other attraction: surviving the maze of food trucks and queues 🍔
If the music doesn't leave you deaf, the queues for the 18-euro burger will leave you speechless. The festival boasts a gastronomic offering, but navigating the maze of food trucks is an endurance test. Amid shoving and prices that would make a banker cry, you discover that the real headliner is your patience. At least the mechanical rides remind you that vertigo isn't just on the stage.
