By Federica Longo There’s no greater feeling than catching a glimpse of Mana in concert and singing all their greatest hits at the top of your lungs. Really, and that’s why Mana is confirmed to rock the stage at the Rock in Rio USA concert taking place next year, becoming the first Spanish-language artists to be announced for the first-ever U.S. edition of the massive festival.

It seemed like the logical thing to have them be part of the Festival’s first edition and we are very proud to welcome them into our journey once again,” said Rock in Rio’s president and founder, Roberto Medina. This year’s Rock in Rio also features Bruno Mars, Linkin Park, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Metallica, Deftones, John Legend and more.
