SBC is set to make a splash in Rio de Janeiro with the eagerly awaited INFINITY Rio party. Scheduled for February 27th during the 2025 edition of the SBC Summit Rio, this event promises to be a vibrant celebration.
Headlining the party will be Grammy-winning producer Afrojack, alongside Brazil’s own house music duo, Dubdogz. Attendees can expect a night filled with thrilling music and an electric atmosphere.
“The concept of INFINITY originated in Lisbon with our inaugural EDM festival featuring top artists like Don Diablo, Miss Monique, and Darude. We’re now thrilled to bring this experience to Rio,” expressed Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC.
The gaming industry’s success hinges on forging connections, and INFINITY Rio offers a unique arena for meeting the innovators leading change in Brazil. SBC is renowned for enhancing attendee experiences, seamlessly blending business opportunities with premier networking. By merging music and entertainment—key inspirations for gaming—into the event’s closing party, SBC ensures a finale that truly embodies the spirit of gaming.
Afrojack skyrocketed to fame with “Take Over Control” and has since become an EDM staple, collaborating with icons like Beyoncé, Pitbull, and Will.i.am. Included in Rolling Stone’s list of “50 Most Important People in EDM” and Forbes’ “30 Under 30,” his influence in the industry is undeniable. His 2020 hit “All Night” topped US dance radio charts and accumulated over 40 million streams.
Sojmark further commented, “Securing Afrojack for our inaugural INFINITY Rio underscores the significance of the SBC Summit Rio. Our delegates will enjoy a superior EDM festival experience, expertly blending global entertainment with essential networking.”
Adding a Brazilian twist, Dubdogz, consisting of twins Lucas and Marcos Ruback, will also grace the stage. Known for their unique Brazilian Bass and House sound, the duo has captured audiences worldwide. Celebrated in DJ Mag’s Top 100, they have performed at renowned venues like Tomorrowland and EDC. Their hit “Infinity” achieved Double Platinum status and exceeded 126 million Spotify streams.
The Riocentro Super Stage, a new venue for the SBC Summit Rio, will transform its setting to host the party, with performances by Afrojack and Dubdogz setting the tempo for the upcoming Carnival on February 28th.
“We’ve timed the SBC Summit Rio 2025 so attendees can smoothly transition from business talks to Carnival celebrations. With Afrojack and Dubdogz headlining, the Carnival curtain-raiser will be a spectacle,” added Sojmark.
In a recent update, SBC had named superstar DJ Alok as the INFINITY Rio headliner, but he withdrew due to personal circumstances. Sojmark remarked, “Although Alok’s absence is unfortunate, we’re excited about the phenomenal energy Afrojack and Dubdogz will bring to the event. We’re confident they’ll deliver a remarkable experience.”
SBC Summit Rio has cemented itself as an essential event in Brazil, moving to the extensive Riocentro convention center for its 2025 iteration, with February’s gathering expected to draw over 15,000 attendees.
