It looks like a lovely beach but I wouldn't want to be there when the concert is going on.

Into the groove
Madonna mania is sweeping Brazil in the run-up to the pop icon’s free concert in Rio de Janeiro this Saturday. The show, which will take place on Copacabana Beach, is expected to attract a record 1.5 million fans. This has resulted in a mobilisation of a scale not seen since the city hosted the 2016 Summer Olympics. The event will be an important test for Rio, which is due to welcome the G20 summit in November and is eager to attract more international events.
