Queen of Pop Madonna wrapped up her “Celebration Tour” before a record crowd in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Madonna held a free concert on Saturday, May 4th, at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, which drew over 1.6 million fans, setting the record for the largest audience ever for a stand-alone concert by any artist in history.

Madonna’s performance featured 26 songs and included guest appearances from Brazilian pop stars Anitta, who joined her for “Vogue”, and Pabllo Vittar, who performed in the tour debut of “Music.”

The performance marked Madonna’s first time performing in Brazil since 2012.

Copacabana Beach has also previously hosted big shows including Rolling Stones‘ gig in 2006 that drew an estimated 1.5 million fans.

Madonna opened her Celebration Tour at London’s O2 Arena back in October 2023, touring across Europe through December. She kicked off the U.S. leg of her tour in New York City on December 13, with shows scheduled through April 26.
