The festivities are scheduled to run from August 30 to September 14, with activities taking place at various venues, including Praia do Cortado and the Massami Uriú Municipal Stadium (Gigante do Norte). Sports remain a central component of the celebration, featuring the 34th Sinop Olympic and 3rd Sinop Paralympic Games. These competitions include basketball, futsal, swimming, karate, bowling, and beach volleyball. Municipal Secretary of Culture, Sport and Tourism Gabriel Vasconcelos previously noted the games aim to promote “sport, social integration and human development in the community.” Additional athletic events include fishing tournaments for kayaks and boats, as well as the ‘Ciclo Festeja’ cycling competition. One fishing tournament on the Teles Pires River is expected to offer over R$ 100,000 in prizes. Cultural and religious programming includes the 3rd Nautical Pilgrimage (Romaria nas Águas) on the Teles Pires River, the March for Jesus, and various Catholic and Gospel shows. Musical entertainment will feature national artists such as Xanddy Harmonia, Edson & Hudson, and Wesley & Conrado, alongside regional performers. Religious shows at the stadium are expected to include Padre Fábio de Melo and Maria Marçal. As the festival approaches, the municipal government and local security forces have finalized preparations for events at Praia do Cortado. To increase public access and provide a safe alternative to private vehicles, the city will provide free air-conditioned bus transportation to Praia do Cortado on September 5, 6, and 7. Security planning involves an integrated effort between the Military Police, Fire Department, Municipal Civil Guard, and other municipal secretariats, focusing on traffic management, public prevention, and crowd assistance. ## Claims - The 3rd Romaria nas Águas is a partnership between the Sinop City Hall and the Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish.
