Opening the evening will be Peste & Sida, an undeniable reference in Portuguese rock. With nearly four decades of history, the band maintains a strong connection with the audience and a stage presence marked by the energy and intensity that characterize their repertoire.

HOW TO ARRIVE
The Stranglers
Formed in 1974, The Stranglers emerged in the context of the punk movement of the late 70s, but quickly transcended labels. Their unique sound, marked by unmistakable bass lines, dark keyboards, and a raw attitude, placed them in a territory of their own, where punk, new wave, and sophisticated rock coexist. In just 13 months, they released three essential albums: Rattus Norvegicus, No More Heroes, and Black and White, which gave rise to classics like Peaches, No More Heroes, and Walk On By.
Peste & Sida
Peste & Sida is a Portuguese rock band formed in the summer of 1986 in Lisbon. The band consisted of João San Payo (bass), Luís Varatojo (guitar), Eduardo Dias (drums), and João Pedro Almendra, who joined the group to handle the vocals; Orlando Cohen joined shortly after. They participated for the first time in the 4th Modern Music Contest of Rock Rendez-Vous, but in the meantime, they secured a recording contract with the independent label Transmédia and promptly released the LP Veneno. This album reveals a Peste & Sida close to the punk aesthetic in songs like Veneno, Furo na Cabeça, Gingão, and Carraspana.
