NOS Alive 2024 in Lisboa was a thrilling mix of music, fun, and excitement! We danced, laughed, and embraced our inner rock stars. This festival wasn’t just about the killer lineup; it was about celebrating diversity and individuality in the most epic way possible.

A Sonic Celebration of Equality
From the moment we stepped into the festival grounds, the energy was electric. This year’s lineup featured a fantastic mix of talented women, gender-nonconforming artists, and iconic rock bands. Headliners like Dua Lipa, Aurora, and Arlo Parks (who stepped in for TYLA) didn’t just perform; they owned the stage with an unapologetic force. The sisters Larkin Poe, Ashnikko, Kenya Grace, Jessie Ware, and Gloria Groove brought their unique sounds, making every performance a celebration of strength and power.
Empowerment Through Music
Dua Lipa’s set was a standout moment, delivering her hits with a dose of self-love and body positivity that turned the crowd into a chorus of empowerment. Between songs, she took the time to speak on the importance of self-acceptance and uplifting one another. It was a poignant reminder that celebrating our victories and our beauty in all its forms is as crucial as any fight.
Community Spirit Everywhere
The spirit of community was palpable, from the friendly conversations in food lines to the shared excitement of discovering new bands. We saw countless acts of kindness, like strangers helping each other navigate the festival grounds and offering sunscreen to those in need. This sense of community is what makes NOS Alive so special—it’s not just about the music; it’s about the people.
