The tenth edition of Rock in Rio Lisboa took place from June 13 to 22 at Parque Tejo. After announcing its return to Portugal in 2026, the news continues. The festival organizers have created a charity auction of exclusive autographed guitars that ends on July 15, Monday.

Jonas Brothers, Scorpions, Evanescence, Extreme, Xutos & Pontapés, Ornatos Violeta, The Legendary Tigerman, Doja Cat, Living Colour, Rival Sons, among many other artists, are some of the 22 still available for bidding. Some of the participants didn’t just write their names, they also left a message. “It’s crazy to be so far from home and feel as at home as I do here,” wrote Brazilian artist Jão.

“This concert won’t leave my mind… and I don’t want it to leave yours”, wrote singer Fernando Daniel.

The money raised will be donated to the association led by Sam the Kid, “Chelas é o Sítio”, whose goal is to bring more value, unity and inclusion to the Chelas area of ​​Lisbon. Known for promoting various cultural, artistic and community activities in the region.

“This auction will be crucial not only for the construction of our headquarters, but also for the entire dynamic of creating a music studio for young artists and a space for socio-cultural development,” says Sam the Kid, the institution’s mentor. The institution was present at Super Bock Digital with four guest artists (GDM, Skiidiverz, Neco and Tublack).

To participate, simply bid on one of the guitars through site Solidarity. The base bid value is €500, some are already at €700.
