Entertainment occupies a privileged position in contemporary society, based on consumption and visibility, result of new socioeconomic and cultural dynamics, which the spectacle is one of its manifestations. The current scene of the music industry suggests other ways of consuming music, motivating interest in understanding the evolution of festivals and the consequent reinvention of previous practices. A better comprehension of this context justifies the choice of Rock in Rio music festival as an object of study. The event underwent a remarkable change throughout its history: from a first edition of difficult set up, in 1985, until its consolidation as a brand of global impact. The research corpus covers the 1985 and 2015 Rock in Rio editions, manifested in audio-visual texts of their main artists’ performances, such as Queen and Metallica; communication pieces of sponsoring brands of the festival in 2015; And the spatial configuration of the Cidade do Rock in the thirty years commemorative edition of Rock in Rio, from which are apprehended the emerging senses of the lived one, given that its structure conditions the interactions between the subjects that make the fruition experience of the event and its value construction happen. The proposed study seeks to show that Rock in Rio is unique as a collective experience. Its methodology of analysis and theoretical foundation addresses Greimas' semiotics and its unfolding, such as Landowski's sociosemiotics (2014a; 2014b) and its dynamics of sense and interaction regimes between subjects, besides the contributions of semioticists of the French line who develop studies on the relations between expression and content, spatiality and the semiotics of situations. The perception of spectacle by Charle (2012) is fundamental to better achieve the suggested analyzes. In the expectation of these conceptions guiding the research in the comprehension of the topics addressed, we have the support in a literature that allows the understanding of the socio-cultural and economic movements that transform entertainment into consumption goods, like the work of Pine and Gilmore (2011), and the emergence of the audience as the subject of the show, based on the contributions of Rancière (2012). The investigation confirms the hypothesis that the sensitive experience articulated to the construction of value of the festival by a complex destinator is what makes the audience loyal to Rock in Rio, which is revealed to be a strong brand of the entertainment during its thirty years of history
