Olivia Rodrigo had Bogotá in the palm of her hand at the Estéreo Picnic Festival, held at Parque Metropolitano Simón Bolívar on March 27-30, 2025. Even with the rain trying to play spoiler, the GUTS star proved nothing could dampen the night, not when she had a packed crowd screaming every lyric back at her.
Rodrigo delivered a standout set, but one moment had the audience completely locked in. If you've seen her live before, you might've guessed it was during her song "Bad Idea, Right?" The tune, which plays out like a chaotic inner monologue debating rekindling an old flame, took on a whole new level of engagement in Bogotá.

The entire festival ground went dead silent before losing their minds when she sang, "But I can't." The reaction was so perfect that even Olivia paused and soaked in the magic.
