The Grammy-winning singer's fans waited for hours, wrapped in raincoats, until the venue's doors opened.
Gabriela, 30, arrived at the venue at 5am and spent over 12 hours in front of the Farmasi Arena's entrance to secure a good spot. She endured the cold and a sore knee, claiming it "will disappear as soon as the show starts."
Gabriela feels a special connection with Rosalia, particularly with her latest album. She identifies with the spirituality in her songs and the way she addresses faith, love, and the duality between good and evil.
"When I listen to her, she gives me a sense of hope that I can't find in anyone else," she told EFE.
Following her success in Europe, the United States and Latin America, Rosalia's tour was eagerly anticipated in Brazil.
Rio de Janeiro was the only Brazilian city included on Rosalia's world tour, and the choice was no coincidence. In late 2025, she chose Christ the Redeemer, one of Brazil's most famous landmarks, to present LUX in an exclusive preview.
