In addition to the already announced Maria Bethânia, Marisa Monte, IZA and Pitty, the event’s all-female program will feature other first-class attractions.

Trans stars such as Majur, Bixarte and Jup do Bairro will have their space at Rock The Mountain 2023, along with names like Gaby Amarantos, Negra Li, Karol Conká and MC Carol.

— Each year, we have been increasing female participation in the festival, giving them more prominence both on stage and in the hierarchy of the line-up. For the 2023 edition, we had already decided to put only women on all stages, and when we managed to close Marisa Monte, Maria Bethânia and IZA, we were even more sure – says Ricardo Brautigam, creator-partner of the festival.
