Архив новостей | Русская версия
Brazilian/American metallers SEPULTURA performed their final concert Saturday night (November 7, 2026) at the Suhai Music Hall in São Paulo, Brazil. Watch fan-filmed videos here.
Several musicians connected to SEPULTURA's history over the decades joined the celebration, including Jairo Guedz, who preceded SEPULTURA guitarist Andreas Kisser in the band's lineup, and João Gordo of Brazilian crossover legends RATOS DE PORÃO (Portuguese for "Basement Rats").
More than a farewell concert, the night was originally conceived as a grand celebration of SEPULTURA's history, bringing together different generations, eras and artists who have become part of the band's journey over the past 40 years. The idea was to transform the final show into a unique moment of tribute, connection and celebration of Brazilian heavy music and its global impact.
This past September, SEPULTURA's final concert was moved from the Mercado Livre Arena Pacaembu stadium, which has a capacity of around 26,000, to the Suhai Music Hall, which holds just over 9,000.
Support at the Suhai Music Hall concert came from KRISIUN, SACRED REICH and METAL ALLEGIANCE.

In a recent interview with Jaimunji of Metal On Tap, Kisser was asked if he would rule out a reunion show for SEPULTURA a few years after the completion of the band's ongoing "farewell" tour. He responded in part: "Dude, I don't rule anything out. It's irrelevant to say if [the retirement is] gonna be forever or we gonna be back. The important thing is that we're gonna stop now. We need that rest, because we organize everything around that. We need our time — we need time to look in a different direction.
"SEPULTURA is not gonna die," he continued. "I mean, MOTÖRHEAD is more alive than... Unfortunately, we don't have the touring, but MOTÖRHEAD will be together with us forever. So we're gonna explore different territories and stuff. And the future, we're gonna deal [with it] when it comes. I mean, possibilities are always open. I don't think we have the power to do eight farewell tours, but who knows? [Laughs] I mean, you see [other bands who announced farewell tours before and then came back or kept touring, like] SCORPIONS, you see Ozzy [Osbourne], you see KISS and MÖTLEY CRÜE and SLAYER and stuff. It's okay to rest and to go out a little bit. It's very healthy, because it shows that art is not really connected to any stereotype of what you should be in the eyes of others."
