Três Lagoas Folklore Festival 2026: PCD registration, companion and what to confirm before traveling

The Três Lagoas Folklore Festival will have an area reserved for PWDs, with prior registration and an accompanying person. See what has already been confirmed and what to check before your trip.

Anyone who intends to travel to the Três Lagoas Folklore Festival in August 2026 and needs to use the space reserved for people with disabilities can now register officially. City Hall opened the form on August 7th and confirmed that each registered PWD will be able to nominate a companion.

The 36th edition of the party will be held from 20 to 23 August 2026, in the NOB area, on Avenida Rosário Congro, central region of Três Lagoas (MS). The program has free entry.

The point that deserves attention for those coming from another city is that the publication on accessibility does not detail all the practical conditions for arrival and use of the reserved area. Therefore, registering is just one part of planning your trip.

How does PCD registration for the Folklore Festival work

According to City Hall, the form was created to identify the public with disabilities who intend to participate in the event and gather information that helps the organization plan the structure and accessibility measures. Filling is treated by the organization as essential to correctly size the reserved space.

Registration is available on an electronic form from the City Hall:

Open the official PCD registration form

The form page appears identified as “Registration for Access to Vacancies for People with Disabilities (PCD)”. As the application depends on JavaScript, not all fields are visible in an external query to the system.

An important detail: the official publication consulted does not provide a deadline for completing the registration. Anyone who has already decided to travel has no reason to leave the form until the last minute.

It was also not stated, in the article published on August 7th, whether simply sending the form is equivalent to definitive confirmation of access to the area, whether there will be a subsequent response from the organization or whether it will be necessary to present some proof at the entrance. These points must be checked before moving.

Can the registered person bring a companion?

Yes. The guidance published by the City Hall determines that each registered person with a disability will have access with a companion, whose name must be indicated on the form itself.

The organization also informs that this companion must provide the necessary assistance while at the event, including traveling to the restrooms when necessary.

This makes it especially important to fill in the companion's details correctly and avoid a last-minute change without first checking with the organization whether the change is possible.

The publication also advises that personal equipment needed by the participant, such as ear protectors and other specific items, be taken by the person themselves.

What still needs to be confirmed before traveling

For those who live in Três Lagoas, a question can be resolved closer to the date. For those who will have spent money on roads, buses, accommodation or adapted travel, it is best to resolve any uncertainties before leaving home.

The specific publication about PCD registration does not detail some points that can significantly change the experience of a person with reduced mobility or other accessibility needs. Before traveling, try to confirm:

  • if the registration sent has received or will receive any confirmation;
  • whether there will be a document, identification or proof required at the entrance to the reserved area;
  • where exactly is the access to the PCD space and what is the closest gate;
  • whether there will be reserved parking or an accessible pick-up and drop-off area near the entrance;
  • what the route will be like between the entrance, reserved area, food court and restrooms;
  • what will be the opening times of the space and if there will be any specific rules for arrival or departure;
  • how to request support from the on-site team, if necessary.

These items appear here precisely because they were not specified in the official communication consulted on August 8, 2026. It is not safe to assume that the logistics will be the same as the previous edition.

Where will the Três Lagoas Folklore Festival be held

City Hall informs that the 2026 edition will take place in the NOB area, Avenida Rosário Congro, in the central region of Três Lagoas, from Thursday, August 20th, to Sunday, August 23rd. Entry will be free.

Among the announced national attractions are Cezar & Paulinho on the 20th, Jeito Moleque on the 21st, Ira! on the 22nd and Mariana Fagundes at the end, on the 23rd. The festival will also feature folklore events, cultural presentations and the participation of artisans and producers from the region.

For an affordable trip, however, knowing the general address doesn't solve everything. The distance between the disembarkation point and the reserved area, the type of flooring, internal routes and the location of the toilets can be as relevant as the distance from the hotel to the NOB. As these details have not yet been presented in the registration publication, they must be included in the final check.

How to speak to the organization before the trip

The institutional page of the Municipal Secretariat of Tourism and Culture of Três Lagoas informs how to contact the telephone number and WhatsApp (67) 98139-3524, in addition to the address Avenida Rosário Congro, nº 560, Centro. The published opening hours are from 7am to 6pm, Mato Grosso do Sul time.

As event information may change in the days leading up to the party, prefer to confirm directly with official channels any details that determine whether your trip will be viable — especially parking, disembarkation point, accessible entrance, operation of the reserved area and eventual proof of registration.

If the answer to any of these points is not yet defined, note the pending issue and check again closer to the trip. Registration already represents an advance in accessibility planning, but practical experience also depends on clear information about arrival, circulation and support during the event.
