After more than four decades of bringing heavy music to the world’s biggest stages, Brazilian/American metallers SEPULTURA have announced the final show of their career.
The historic performance will take place on November 7, 2026 at the Mercado Livre Arena Pacaembu in São Paulo, Brazil, marking the end of one of the most influential journeys in the history of heavy metal worldwide.
The choice of the Mercado Livre Arena Pacaembu holds special meaning for the band. The venue has been part of SEPULTURA‘s history since the early 1990s, especially because of the iconic concert held at Praça Charles Miller, in front of the stadium, which helped establish the band’s strength in Brazil. Decades later, SEPULTURA returns to the same place to close its story, where part of that legacy was also built.
Among the international acts already confirmed is METAL ALLEGIANCE, featuring some of the most respected musicians in the global metal scene, including Mike Portnoy of DREAM THEATER, Alex Skolnick and Chuck Billy of TESTAMENT, Phil Demmel, formerly of MACHINE HEAD, Troy Sanders of MASTODON, and bassist/founder Mark Menghi.
The lineup will also feature confirmed appearances by KRISIUN, one of the world’s most respected death metal bands, and American thrash metal band SACRED REICH. Additional special guests will be announced soon.
Former members and musicians connected to SEPULTURA‘s history over the decades are also expected to join the celebration, including Jean Dolabella and Jairo Guedz, the latter of whom preceded SEPULTURA guitarist Andreas Kisser in the band’s lineup.
SEPULTURA kicked off its farewell tour on March 1, 2024 at Arena Hall in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
