To be a headliner at Rock In Rio is a significant honor, and the first artist to grace this prestigious stage in 2024 is the unparalleled English singer-songwriter, Ed Sheeran. Returning after a decade since his debut on the Main Stage in Portugal, Ed will captivate the audience on June 16, 2024, with his raw emotion, undeniable charm, and chart-topping hits like “Shape of You,” “Bad Habits,” “Thinking Out Loud,” and many more.
