The Texas Auto Rock event in Teixeira de Freitas, Bahia turned Praça Irmã Carla Caddia into a gathering for antique‑car enthusiasts over a weekend. The fourth edition of the city's classic‑car meeting showcased vehicles from multiple decades, featured live music by Vellart Project and Hipermetropia, and included automotive‑related businesses offering products and services.

In Mariana, Minas Gerais, the 8th Encontro de Veículos Antigos filled Praça Gomes Freire with national and imported classic cars.
