The Mayor of São Paulo, Ricardo Nunes, signed a Term of Adjustment of Conduct (TAC) with the Public Ministry on Tuesday, allowing for a free international megashow to take place on Avenida Paulista later this year. This decision follows the growing trend of hosting large-scale events in urban areas to promote cultural engagement and tourism. Among the major bands considered for the event are well-known acts such as Foo Fighters, U2, Coldplay, and Rolling Stones, reflecting the high-profile nature of the concert.

Mayor Nunes expressed optimism about securing the necessary artist schedules, aiming for the concert to happen on September 5. He noted that while the agreement has been signed, it must still receive validation from the Superior Council of the Public Ministry, a process that is expected to be completed in the coming weeks. This could lead to a significant boost in foot traffic and attention for São Paulo, both for locals and tourists alike. Moreover, the new TAC suggests a gradual expansion of large events on Avenida Paulista, indicating a shift in the city's approach to public gatherings and cultural events.

The 2026 transition year mentioned in the new TAC also hints at a variety of future events, including the LGBT Pride Parade, showcasing a commitment to diversity and inclusion within the city's cultural calendar. This initiative not only plans for immediate enjoyment through major musical acts, but it also reflects a broader strategy to enhance the vibrancy of São Paulo’s public spaces, promoting a lively urban culture that aligns with the global trend of mega concerts and public festivals.
