The São João festival in Campina Grande, known as the Largest São João in the World, is set to run from July 5 to July 3, 2026. Details regarding the festival's operations were finalized in a recent meeting convened by the Public Ministry of Paraíba, where the regulations were discussed. The full schedule for the festival is expected to be announced on March 31, 2026, indicating significant preparation and anticipation for this annual cultural event.

The closure times for the Parque do Povo, the main venue for the festival, have been officially decided. On Mondays and Tuesdays, the park will close at midnight; on Wednesdays and Thursdays, it will close at 2 AM; and on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, it will remain open until 3 AM. These timings reflect an effort to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for attendees, balancing the needs of festival-goers with considerations around noise and public order.

Additionally, these operational hours will be documented in a term of conduct adjustment (TAC), which will be signed by the Campina Grande Environmental Justice and the Mayor, Bruno Cunha Lima. This collaborative approach highlights the importance of adherence to regulations, ensuring that the festivity can proceed smoothly while also being mindful of the local community's needs and concerns, particularly during festive periods such as Corpus Christi.
