Primavera Sound São Paulo 2026: dates, venue and getting there

Gates and hours

On Saturday and on Sunday the gates open at 12:30 and the last entry is at 22:00. The promoter's terms add "impreterivelmente": without exception. The festival ends at midnight. Set times had not been published on 24 October 2026, and Ingresse warns that show times may change. Who plays which day is on the line-up page. The festival is only these two days. The Primavera na Cidade club nights, from Wednesday 2 to Friday 4 December at Cine Joia and Audio, are separate events.

The Autódromo de Interlagos

The address is Av. Senador Teotônio Vilela, 261, Interlagos, São Paulo – SP, 04801-010. The circuit's phone number, as its site prints it, is (11) 5666-8822. From abroad, put Brazil's country code in front. Its official name is Autódromo José Carlos Pace, according to the circuit's own history page. The festival was there in 2023 too, and the organiser recalled as much when it announced the 2026 line-up. ViaMobilidade, the train operator, is among the festival's partners on the organiser's English page. Open in maps · The circuit's website (in Portuguese)

Getting there: by train, and from the airport

By train. Autódromo station (in Portuguese) is on Line 9-Esmeralda, run by ViaMobilidade 8 e 9 (Motiva Trilhos). The station page says it is near the circuit, and entrance A is at Rua Plínio Schmidt, 307. The station has lifts, ramps, tactile flooring and an accessible toilet. Its bicycle park has 261 spaces, open daily from 06:00 to 22:00, and you register at the station with a photo ID.

From Guarulhos airport (GRU). According to the airport's English page, Airport-Guarulhos station is on CPTM Line 13-Jade, which runs to Engenheiro Goulart. There you change to Line 12-Safira, which goes to Tatuapé and Brás ("connect") and to Luz ("airport express"). Line 13 runs from 04:00 to midnight Sunday to Friday, and from 04:00 to 01:00 on Saturdays. A free shuttle links the station's Airport Access, next to the Terminal 1 car park, with the terminals. GRU Airport, by train

Joining Line 9. According to its operator (in Portuguese), Line 9-Esmeralda, which serves Autódromo, meets Metro Line 4-Amarela at Pinheiros, Line 5-Lilás at Santo Amaro and Line 8-Diamante at Osasco. Neither page sets out a route from the airport to the circuit, with a time or a fare.

What is not published. On 24 October 2026 the organiser and the operator had published no station hours for the festival days, no extra trains and nothing on parking. The organiser's São Paulo menu had no transport page for this edition.

VIP tickets. VIP tickets include a transfer: "transportation to the festival venue" in the organiser's words, a shuttle to the VIP area inside Interlagos in Ingresse's, with the boarding point to be confirmed.

Age: 16, and the rules for younger children

Ingresse's page gives the age rating as 16. Children aged 5 to 15 may enter with their parents or legal guardians, who sign the minors' consent form (the "termo de responsabilidade") and show an identity document. Children under 5 may not enter. Ingresse adds that the rule may change under the terms of the court order, the "alvará", of the Childhood and Youth Court. The same court order lets 16- and 17-year-olds in without a parent, on conditions set out below.

The consent form, for ages 5 to 15. The consent form, a PDF in Portuguese, is the promoter's. It names the event, the legal guardian, the child and an accompanying adult. The guardian's signature must be notarised, in the form's words "com reconhecimento de firma em cartório". The child and the accompanying adult must both carry official ID. By signing, the guardian lets the child enter and stay with an adult companion, who takes responsibility for the child.

The court order, for 16 and 17. The court order, a PDF in Portuguese, is dated 18 August 2026 and valid for 180 days (read 22 October 2026). It lets 16- and 17-year-olds in without their parents or guardians, on four conditions: the age rating is observed, the licences are valid, protection measures are in place, and no alcohol goes to minors. The judge declined to set age bands for children who come with their parents, so the 5-to-15 rule is the organiser's own. The promoter's terms add that no alcohol is served to under-18s.

Travelling with a child from the UK. GOV.UK says non-Brazilian under-18s travelling without one or both parents should follow Brazil's authorisation process for minors, and carry the original birth certificate or a notarised copy. Read Ingresse's page (in Portuguese) before buying a ticket for anyone under 16.
