Cultural and gastronomic festivals in Ubatuba

Overview

Ubatuba is hosting a series of cultural and gastronomic events. The 17th Gastronomic Festival, titled “Sabor Caiçara 2026,” began with an opening fair at Praça da Baleia from July 31 to August 2, attracting approximately 2,500 daily visitors. The festival runs through September 13 and includes cooking shows, a popular recipe contest, and a technical jury evaluating 14 categories, including new sections for “Meats” and “Most Creative Dish.” Organizers aim to exceed previous records of 40,000 visitors and 18,000 dishes sold. A professional training week for food-service workers is scheduled for August 24–28, covering topics such as management, marketing, and artificial intelligence.

The 18th Caiçarada Popular Culture Festival is scheduled for August 28 to 30 at Cruzeiro Beach or the Avenida Iperoig Event Square. Organized by Fundart, the event celebrates local traditions through the ‘João Alegre’ Viola Festival, folk dances like fandango and maracatu, and a canoe race featuring nine categories. Additional activities include demonstrations of ‘Casa Caiçara’ construction and local gastronomy, such as roasted mullet (tainha).
