Lady Gaga performed in front of the largest crowd of her career on Saturday night, drawing over two million people to her free concert at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

The concert marked Gaga’s long-awaited return to Brasil after more than a decade, as she was previously forced to cancel a 2017 appearance at Rock in Rio after being hospitalized for severe pain. Making up for lost time, the pop star staged a highly-choreographed, career-spanning five-act set reminiscent of her recent headlining performance at Coachella.
“I’m so honored to be here to be with you tonight. My heart is full, I feel lucky, proud, and deeply grateful,” Gaga said during a speech given mid-way through her performance. “Tonight, we’re making history, but no one makes history alone. Without all of you, the incredible people of Brasil, I wouldn’t have this moment, thank you for making history with me. The people of Brasil are the reason I get to shine today. You are as vibrant and beautiful as the sun and the moon rising over the ocean right hear on Copacabana Beach.”

The massive crowd responded in kind, loudly singing along to all of Gaga’s songs — including material from her newly released album, Mayhem. At one point, Gaga also noted how she could hear fans singing outside her hotel: “I heard you every night, all night long, singing every word. What a present that was.”
Gaga also used her set to express love for Brazil’s LGBTQ+ community, adding, “Thank you for teaching us all.”

Last year, Madonna staged a similarly massive concert at Copacabana Beach. Inspired by her appearance, Rio de Janeiro Mayor Eduardo Paes announced plans to host large-scale concerts more regularly at the iconic venue—beginning with Gaga.
