Super Bock Super Rock is one of Portugal's most iconic summer music festivals, returning to Lisbon each July with a multi-stage programme spanning rock, pop, electronic, and indie.

About Super Bock Super Rock
Super Bock Super Rock has been a fixture of the Portuguese summer since 1995. Held at the Meco beach complex south of Lisbon (Lagoa de Albufeira) or at Parque da Bela Vista depending on the edition, the festival draws 30,000 to 50,000 attendees across its three-day run.
The festival is known for booking artists at the peak of their momentum, it has a record of announcing acts just before their international breakthrough. Recent headline editions have included acts across rock, indie, pop, and electronic music on its two main stages, with smaller stages dedicated to Portuguese artists and emerging international talent.

What Makes Super Bock Super Rock Different
Unlike larger European festivals that focus exclusively on major international acts, Super Bock Super Rock maintains a strong commitment to Portuguese music. The secondary stages regularly feature Portuguese artists from across genres, and the local food and craft village reflects the culture of the region.
The festival also maintains a beach and outdoor atmosphere that distinguishes it from urban festival venues. Access to the coastline, the warm July weather, and the relaxed pace between sets gives SBSR a character that is distinct from the more intense energy of inner-city events.
