What time does Pixote perform?
Grupo Pixote performs at 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, September 27, at Espaço Tradições. The announced schedule for the same stage then lists Trilha Norte at 6:50 p.m., Adilson Aragão, Semi Novos & Ousados at 7:30 p.m., A Quadrilha at 8:30 p.m. and Massala at 9:30 p.m.
Because the festival operates in two areas, check the venue name together with each performance time. This helps avoid confusing simultaneous or closely timed attractions on the two stages.

What is available besides the concerts?
At Espaço Tradições, the program includes Brazilian, Japanese, Arab and Romani cultural expressions, along with food stalls representing Brazilian, Arab, Japanese, Afghan, German, Italian and Romani cuisines and craft stalls. The city announcement also lists a Kids Area with inflatable toys, face painting, popcorn and cotton candy.
Espaço Cultura has six themed exhibition tents dedicated to Northeastern Brazilian Culture, Indigenous Peoples and Romani Culture, Samba de Bambas, SP Vinil Retrô, Graffiti and paintings. Announced participatory activities include Pintando na Praça, a Bonecas Abayomi workshop and a Taiko workshop. The source consulted confirms these workshops but does not provide individual times for them, so visitors should check instructions on site before planning a visit around a specific workshop.
How to plan your visit
Visitors mainly interested in Pixote can use 5:30 p.m. on Sunday as their reference time and arrive early enough to find Espaço Tradições. Families interested in children's activities can combine the Kids Area with cultural attractions and the announced workshops. Anyone planning to see several performances can compare the two schedules and move between the areas according to their preferred attractions.
Event schedules can change. Before leaving, check the official São Miguel Paulista Subprefecture publication for possible updates.
