Rio de Janeiro, Sept 27, 2018 – Rock in Rio 2019 offers not only a night to remember, but also a historic event. After a metal-free festival at City of Rock in 2017, the Rock in Rio organizers are giving a special gift to the fans and announces, for 2019, a whole day dedicated to this musical genre. It will be a revival of the first edition in 1985, when the nights with these heavy metal bands brought over 300 thousand people to the event. Thirty-four years later, with the headliner Brits IRON MAIDEN, the Germans from Scorpions, the Americans from Megadeth and the Brazilians from Sepultura, Rock in Rio promises another memorable night on October 4th. These announcements marked the start of the one-year countdown to Rock in Rio 2019, that will take place on September 27, 28 and 29 and October 3, 4, 5 and 6 of 2019, in the City of Rock, at Barra da Tijuca (Parque Olímpico - Av. Salvador Allende). For Roberto Medina, president of Rock in Rio, announcing the whole line-up for the World Stage on the metal night at once is a way to honor this metal community that, in 2017, wasn’t represented.
