Description
Rock in Rio is not working as a music event, but as a communication strategy. For this, every ad, try to enable a small event. Press conferences always have the theme spokespersons and also with some pocket show that is related to the subject. Another strategy is not divulge the line- up all at once. Announcements of confirmed attractions are being released individually, a year before the event, until practically the day before the start of ticket sales (always with a headliner). This fosters curiosity of the public and the media and increases ticket sales (so that the tickets always sell out very quickly).
Execution

The actions with the press and specific actions with the media to several subjects (shows at the stage; production; social projects; setting of the Rock City; event structure; press credentials; interviews; press access to the backstage and cabinets, etc.) generate a higher event visibility, with spokesmen used as sources to speak not only about the festival but also about the entertainment sector.
