Vivo X El Rock in Lima
Vivo X El Rock is Peru's best known rock festival, held in Lima since the 1990s and running for numerous numbered editions that have hosted both major international acts and leading Peruvian rock and metal bands. Staged in large venues such as Lima stadiums, the festival has become one of the longest-running rock events in Latin America, drawing generations of fans across multiple genres within rock and metal.
Rock music built a committed following in Peru from the 1960s onward, but it was in the 1990s that Lima's scene gained enough scale and organizational infrastructure to support a large recurring festival built specifically around the genre.
