The venue's open-air stage, with its distinctive circus tent aesthetic, has hosted virtually every major Brazilian artist as well as countless international acts.

History
Founded in 1982 as part of Rio's alternative cultural movement, Circo Voador was one of the first venues in Brazil to embrace rock and alternative music. After a period of closure, it reopened in 2004 and has since reclaimed its position as one of the most important live music venues in the country.
