The city of Rio funded the incident as part of a comprehensive effort to promote the local economy.
On Saturday night, Rio de Janeiro’s prestigious Kopakbana Beach turned into a large -scale open air stage as pop superstar Lady Gaga performed the biggest concert of her career. According to city officials, the free incident attracted over two million fans and funded by the local government to help encourage the city’s economy. According to the BBC report, the concert is expected to generate approximately $100 million under economic impact.
The show was part of his eighth studio album, Gaga’s pracharak tour for Meheme, including tracks such as Abrakadrabra and Die with a Smile. It marked his return to Brazil after a gap of 12 years-his last performance in the country was in 2012.
A few hours before the concert started, fans – lovingly known as “Little Monsters” – stood early to secure safe places near the stage. With the expectation of such mass voting, the city began a large -scale security operation that included 5,000 police officers. The attendees passed through metal detectors, while drones and facial recognition cameras assisted the authorities under the crowd.
