A love connection with Brazil
In March 1981, after failing to play at the Maracanã, Queen made history in São Paulo, at the Morumbi Stadium, during The Game Tour. Four years before the historic scene of “Love of My Life” in unison at Rock in Rio.
At the time, major international concerts were a rarity in the country, and this was the first major international concert to take place in São Paulo, consolidating Brazil as a destination for international tours and paving the way for many other artists.
With two performances and more than 200,000 emotional fans singing along to the band’s greatest hits, Queen, enchanted by Brazilian energy and passion, consolidated their connection with Brazil. And sorry Cariocas, but it all started here.
