NOS Alive Festival is thrilled to announce Foo Fighters long awaited return to Portugal. Back for the first time in six years, the band will headline the NOS Alive Festival on Friday 7th July 2017.

The band’s massive catalogue of gold and platinum albums has won 11 Grammys, four Brit Awards, sold 25+ million records, and is the backbone of marathon shows powered by singalong anthems “Everlong,“ „Monkey Wrench,“ „My Hero,“ „Learn To Fly,“ „All My Life,“ „Best Of You,“ „The Pretender,“ “Walk,“ “Something From Nothing” and more.
Foo Fighters’ headline set will make the 11th NOS Alive Festival an unforgettable experience for the ages. The festival takes place in Lisbon, Portugal, at Passeio Marítimo de Algés, on 6, 7 & 8th July 2017.
Since its formation in 2007, Portugal’s NOS Alive has developed an enviable reputation as one of the world’s leading festivals.
