On occasion, the event has not yet been termed Planet Pop Festival, and to be called so only in the following year in 2004. The place to house the show is the theater Via Funchal, located in Vila Olímpia neighborhood of the city of São Paulo.

2004 Edition

The first official event show Planet Pop Festival was held on 13 and 14 August 2004, the playhouse Via Funchal. At the time of the event, which was disclosed massive radio station Jovem Pan, a certain rage has gripped the fans of dance music, when at the time, were asked the top names of the style they were doing at that time global success.

The Italian Rossano Trini, known as DJ Ross, was a hit with the hits "Emotion," "Floating In Love" and "Dreamland." Tristano De Bonis known by the stage name Magic Box, scored big with the hits "This Is Better" and "If You." Erika's sister, Tristano De Bonis (Magic Box) was a hit with the songs Ditto, I Do not Know Relations and at that time had a roll with DJ Ross. The trio, which comes from Italy, was certainly one of the great attractions of the night, performing together on stage.

On the same night it still had two of the most renowned projects in the history of dance music: Lasgo and Ian Van Dahl. The first, led by singer Evi Goffin and accompanied by the duo of dancers, ended the evening concerts, and was certainly the show that most stirred the public, raising the Via Funchal in middle of the night. Ian Van Dahl did not leave for less, getting all the stir with its new hits of the then new CD Lost & Found, and with old hits such as "Castles In The Sky", "Try" and "Will I?". The song "Waiting for You" was the big surprise of the night. The show also had performances of the Brazilian project with a muşca Dalimas "Living On A Prayer" Bon Jovi the group and a group of poultry that started the show.

Estimated to have watched the shows over 15 thousand people, divided between the two nights. The first night, the show was recorded, and its DVD release 7 months later, called Live Planet Pop Festival In Brazil Volume 1.

2005 Edition

In the second edition of the event, was notable greater care of the production of the show on the stage set the stage. But at the same time, there were many complaints at the time of the public about the low sound that was issued by amplifying boxes and the fact Lighting Via Funchal be very high for virtually every show.

Occurred this time in April, on 7 and 8, the event was less public than the previous edition. The 2005 event repeated the attraction Italian DJ Ross, Magic Box and Erika and brought the German DJ Jan Wayne, responsible for hits "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" and "More Than A Feeling." On vocals, the German Charlene also got a little shy, but the bands final show, came loose and revealed an amazing chemistry between her and the public, a fact that came to be confirmed in the next event in 2006.

A key attraction of the evening was the group The Underdog Project, from the USA. The group that unites beats typically American, such that hip-hop, black and R & B, dance music, shook the theater for more than 1 hour. Highlight for the song Saturday Night, the most famous and awaited the show.

The closing balance for two nights, it was clear that in that year's event, much reformulated positively, between stage, production and so on. But it should be noted that the repetition of the trio of Italian show on those nights only served to kill the will of those who could not go to the show last year, but it sounded repetitive and tiresome for the gifts in the first two editions.

The 2005 edition marked the debut of Daytona in the circuits of great shows. Another project led by Tibor Yuzo, who has commanded at the time the Dalimas, the project Daytona wrote a song exclusively for the event, called the Butterfly. The presentation of Dalimas, especially the duet with Klauss the song "How Do I".

The 2006 edition of the event was again held in April and also came to rely on the disclosure massissa Radio Jovem Pan, which has not happened in 2005.

In the event that took place on 7 and 8 of the fourth month of 2006, there was a frenzy so great that the directors of the event were some of the success of the third edition of the festival. And agreed on the fly. Third Planet Pop was a huge hit with audiences and critics, and marked the best Planet Pop Festival ever held.

A curiosity about the names of artists that would be disseminated: there was no official announcement about the names by the Building Records label, which was trying to make a thriller about and whether or not the shows in 2006. But an ad on the show schedule on the official sites of Ian Van Dahl and Lasgo (which are the same Belgian label) not sanctioned by the production of the event here in Brazil, has indicated to the event, since the two shows scheduled one after the other, just the month of April, in SP, it clearly showed that it was a great show to be held in the same Via Funchal.

What has caused a furore by confirmed presence of Lasgo and Ian Van Dahl in the city, further increased when in a difference of 2 days, DJ Jan Wayne and pop-dance group Groove Coverage announced his coming, and detail: for the same 7 and 8 in the same city of Sao Paulo. There was nothing to hide, but there would be another Planet Pop Festival, with the best attractions of each year and Groove Coverage, a novel attraction more than expected.

So it has come to the end of January and all the artists already confirmed: the Belgian group Ian Van Dahl and Lasgo, the German project Groove Coverage and fellow German DJ Jan Wayne with a vocal Charlene the Italians Ross and DJ Double You; beyond national attractions Daytona, Dalimas and Kasino. It is noteworthy that the attractions of Brazil in the advent of shows every cast CD's, especially Kasino, which was the country's most anticipated attraction of the night, because the inserts singles in their novels of 8 TV Globo.

Ian Van Dahl lived at the time of Planet Pop a very special moment in his career: the music Movin 'On, which is the first single from the defunct third CD, was successful in all radios and ballads of Brazil.

In two days of Planet Pop, the highlight was the concert that took place on Saturday, although that was not the day of the shoot was the day on which presented a greater capacity of the public since Friday, was the same day the show's international singer Jack Johnson, also in Sao Paulo, which caused migration from Friday to Saturday for much of the public.

In both concerts, the repertoire and format of the presentations were similar.
