The city of Corumbá marked its 248th anniversary with a series of civic and cultural events. Preparations for the milestone included a scheduled civic-military parade on Avenida General Rondon, featuring participation from over 70 institutions, including the Brazilian Navy, the Army, and various educational and social organizations.

To facilitate the celebrations, the Municipal Transit and Transport Agency implemented traffic restrictions in the central region. The anniversary also prompted local political initiatives, such as a call by Councilwoman Hanna Ellen Santana for a survey of tourist and historical signage to support the Pantanal region's tourism sector. Additionally, the municipality launched the ‘Nossa Cidade, Nossas Raízes’ campaign to honor the contributions of local residents, including artisans and educators, to the city’s cultural identity.
