Carnival 2026 in Campo Grande will host various celebrations from February 13 to 21, featuring parades of samba schools and carnival blocks throughout the city. Most of the festive events are scheduled to take place at the Esplanada Ferroviária, with school parades occurring at Praça do Papa, followed by results announced at Teatro Arena and the final awards at Armazém Cultural.

The detailed programming for the event includes daily schedules of multiple blocks, with activities starting in the afternoons. For instance, on the first day of festivities, Bloco do Reggae is set to kick-off at 3 PM at Monumento Maria Fumaça, followed by other blocks each with specific locations and times that invite both locals and tourists to engage in the celebrations.

The Carnival is a significant cultural event in Brazil, and the planning for 2026 emphasizes bringing communities together to celebrate through music and dance, highlighting the role of local samba schools and community blocks. This year’s anticipation follows the success of Vila Carvalho, the winner of the 2025 Carnival, which sets high expectations for the upcoming festivities.
