Are we forgetting that Madonna posed with police in Rio in 2017 while she was there for Guy O's wedding. two days after Rio military police shot dead a Spanish tourist leaving the Rocinha favela?
Soon after the image was uploaded to social media, it was posted by the official military police account of Rio de Janeiro. the photo attracted comments from many in Brazil who were unhappy. Among the replies, one said Madonna needed to "explain" the picture, another called the picture "inappropriate," and a third said the photo showed "disrespect" to Brazilians.
She also mentioned during the Vice meets Madonna interview for secret project that when they got to South America everything got more scary and she had to ride in bomb proof cars because she was seen as a public figure and there were lots of people with guns.
Brazil like most countries has it's own problems but like others have said approprate precautions are being taken by those organizing the event.
yes, police brutality is a major problem in Rio and other major cities in Brazil. but so does in the US.
that's my point!
having said that, I'm sure the event will run smoothly and everything and everyone will be ok. so please let's focus on being optimistic and cheerful, I'm sure my brazilian people will be a great crowd.
next topic please!

it's the second comment I read regarding how unsafe and wild and sexual Brazil is.
guys, go read a book.
yes, Brazil has crime. yes, Brazil is known for its wild Carnival. but so does the US, and Folsom Street Fair.
the producers and the government have already stated MULTILPLE times that they will deploy extra police officers to the event and there will be facial recognition throughout the beach.
by NO MEANS, Brazil is the most violent country in the world. Brazilians live happy lives and are very optimistic, despite dealing with centuries of slavery and exploitation from europeans countries, so please, think long and hard before saying things that are very untrue.
sorry for the lenghty post guys, but these types of uneducated comments make my blood boil.

by the look of it, seems we're getting a top section of metal truss built similar to Confessions on stadiums. those two big towers in the middle of the pit are probably going to be connected to the main part of the structure - if they are doing this it will probably be the whole shabang, side projection screens, flying rig...
let's keep watching, fingers crossed!

I'm getting flashbacks to MDNA at Olympia
On July 17 2012, it was announced Madonna would do an "intimate one night only performance" at Paris's Olympia hall, on Thursday July 26 2012. It was described as Madonna's way "to honor her love for French artists, French cinema and a tribute to France’s long history of welcoming and inspiring artists". Tickets for the concert were first allotted to members of her official fan club on July 18, and three days later, were put on sale for the general public;
The concert was critically panned by fans and attendees, many of whom had allegedly paid more than €280 or had slept on the street overnight to be able to purchase tickets, with most of the criticism centering on the fact that the set only lasted 45 minutes.
Following the backlash, publicist Liz Rosenberg issued a statement saying that "[the show] was not billed as her full MDNA concert and tremendous effort was made to keep the ticket prices reasonable [...] [it] cost Madonna close to a million dollars to produce. She has done a handful of club dates in the past and they were never more than 45 minutes"
Obviously this is a free concert but for now the fear is there, I'm sure it will all be fine
don't need to be worried! I think that the sponsors wouldn't held a press conference and mobilize both government and private parties for a 45min concert.
Itaú and the other sponsors paid for the show in full and it has been said multiple times it will be "a 2 hour event"
relax and enjoy the show darling 💕

As some have mentioned, I’m wondering if this show will be completely different from the Celebration show? Something on the line of the Live 8 shows with only five or six songs? The only reason I’m wondering this is she might want to do something completely different from the Celebration tour (as the tour might be getting so tiring for her now). New costumes etc. Nothing would surprise me.
now that the official blueprint plan of the event has been leaked, we know that she'll bring the full Celebration stage.
also, in every single ad and in the press conference the show was referenced as "The Celebration Tour" so I'm sure it will be the same concert, with maybe a few surprises for the brazilian audiences. -

about the broadcast: it will be available for free to subscribers and non-subscribers wherever Globoplay is available (Brazil and Portugal).
Globo paid millions for the rights and won't open their signal to the whole world, so get your VPNs ready. It's quick and easy, and you'll have 100% certainty it will work.

People were robbed inside the venue at Sticky & Sweet and MDNA Tour in Rio de Janeiro. Imagine at FREE open place.
Brazil 2023 - 40.000 violent murders. The "regular" murders are not included in this total. Rio de Janeiro it is the on the top the list with almost 4.000 violent murders 2023 and continues to increase. That is 10 murders a day.
This Madonna Concert in Brazil it is so much wrong in so many levels that it is a shame see Madonna involve in this.
The Itaú bank is so corrupt, openly, and directly involve with the organised crime (disguised as political party) that in Brazil called government, co-work with FARC.
I cold going on and on.
She is being paid with dirty and bloody money. She does not need this, and this is a big shame.
As a Brazilian myself, I'm not even going to entertain the idea of replying to you, because I would probably be banned.
Having said that...
For the other fans that are truly excited, let's keep the positivity going! It's gonna be a historic night and we all know she'll be GLOWING with happiness for being so welcomed in our beautiful country. 🇧🇷

I think its something related to his personal work - not M's

There is a rumour going around that the "Itaú area" they are planning for the show will actually be reserved for 10k people. That should include the 750 clients they promised to draw plus guests, influencers and whatnots. Considering this area will be at the front and it's A LOT of people I can't even imagine how far away the "regular" audience will be from her and the catwalks.
Anyway, don't even know if there are actual brazilians visiting this thread but it just gets more and more nerve wracking for those attending the show.
brazilian here - I think 10k is quite a lot just for Itaú, there are other sponsors that may get a cut of a "reserved space".
saying that... I think you need to prepare, this concert won't be a regular stadium experience, nor an arena one.
I truly hope that you and all real fans get a good spot! but be prepared for every scenario. -
I'm certain that Globo will not broadcast anything before the actual concert starts.
Not in public TV nor in the paid channel.
Maybe on the streaming service Globoplay, but that's a stretch.

hey guys! here I am again with some concepts of how the stage could be built in Rio:
it's the only thing I can think about honestly
I've did some research on how the Rolling Stones concert was built and how the New Year's Eve stage is set up every year.
hope you like it!
-
now that everything is 100% confirmed I can only start imagining how are they going to make the stage bigger... my stage designer brain is already thinking of a thousand variations that could be implemented by her team.
I've sketched this test last year before the rumours of the Copacabana concert, thinking about a stadium leg.
Here's what I did:- Bigger LED screens behind the stage
- Runways are a bit more spaced between them (so more people can fit inside the pit)
- Removal of the "flying portal" and the side projection screens
the soul of the concert would be still there, just a few moments would need to be re-coreographed.

We don't need to go till Perry to have an example.
Why weren't HeartBreakCity and Love Don't Live Here Anymore performed in Macau???
YES! thats a good question since the concert was performed in an arena I dont see the point - but I can think of two scenarios:
- the metal stairs were shipped to Macau but she wasn't in the mood to perform those songs
- the stairs were not shipped there as a cost saving measure (which would be weird)

I believe @migsou meant by "they" in "they had all the lifting..." the Live Nation/Madonna team. The structure was always from them. No wonder I remind of more than 12 big trucks (actual number I don't remind of tho) coming to Maracanã Stadium to make whole S&ST stage.
yes, I agree! and @migsou is right about that - my point is about "nothing is attached to the ceilings of the arenas"
everything is hanged from the ceiling on the Celebration Tour except the main stage and runways - in the S&S stage they were able to fit the hanged portion of the light fixtures and rounded LED screens because the runway was not super long, which is very different this time.
so that's why everything that's off of the main stage (in terms of hanged fixtures) probably won't make it to Rio. one good example is Katy's Witness Tour in Latin America - they had a different version of the main LED screen, but all props were there, with the exception of.... everything that was hanged from the ceiling of the arenas in the US/Europe leg.
also: in no shape or form this will impact the experience of the show, I'm sure M will be radiant and concert will be an amazing achievement in her carreer and also for us brazilians just giving you my honest professional opinion (which could be also very wrong)

rain on MY parade? at what point did i say they were going to build the same structure this time?
14 hours ago, migsou said:i'm pretty sure it can. the stage is an independent structure, nothing is attached to the ceilings of the arenas. when the s&s and mdna tours were presented in stadiums (outdoors) in brazil they had all the lifting structures.
er.... here?

sorry to rain on your parade, but... since (as far as we know) its just a one-night-only concert in this format (open air/stadium), it would be too costly to built a structure like the one holding the disco ball up in the Confessions stadium shows for just one concert.
I'm a stage designer so my best guess is that the stage will remain the same except from the side projection screens and the portal/flying rig - so everything in the main stage will be kept as is, the same goes for the runways, including the Bedtime Story cube.
but... we shall see

don't know if you saw my post on the other thread but it is confirmed - the concert will only be available in Brazil due to copyright.
