Mariah Carey Plans Amazon Rainforest Concert for Climate Awareness

Mariah Carey is set to headline Amazônia Live – Today and Always, a historic concert on September 17, 2025, performed on a floating stage along the Guamá River in Belém, Brazil. The event, produced by the team behind Rock in Rio, aims to raise global awareness for the preservation of the Amazon rainforest ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) hosted in Belém in November. The stage design, inspired by the Victoria Amazonica water lily, will provide a stunning sunset backdrop, while the concert will feature local artists to highlight Pará's cultural richness. The event underscores the importance of protecting indigenous communities, expanding the bioeconomy, restoring degraded lands, and reforesting to reduce global carbon emissions. A free follow-up concert on September 20 at Mangueirão Stadium will showcase Brazilian star Ivete Sangalo and local performers to further mobilize regional conservation efforts. The entire event will be recorded for a national television special in Brazil, amplifying its message on environmental protection and climate action.
