The Limeira Rodeo Music, also known as the Limeira Peon Festival, has announced that its 2026 edition will be held in Cordeirópolis, São Paulo, instead of Limeira. This change is scheduled for March 26 to 28, 2026, at a specific location in Cordeirópolis. The organizing committee cited restrictions in Limeira regarding events involving animals as the reason for this decision.

The Limeira Rodeo is a significant cultural event in the region, featuring competitions involving mounted events and bull riding, along with performances from various popular music artists, particularly from the sertanejo genre. The festival is a considerable draw for fans of rodeo culture and traditional Brazilian music.

Despite queries to the Limeira city hall regarding the limitations on the event, no response was received prior to the publication of this report. The city administration did note, however, that no application for the necessary permit to hold the event had been submitted. Additionally, they mentioned that the event organizer had outstanding debts associated with previous editions of the festival. This situation raises concerns about the future of similar events in Limeira if regulatory and financial issues are not resolved.
