The story

Interlagos Motorsport Festival in São Paulo

Festival Interlagos brings national racing series, including Stock Car Pro Series and motorcycle competition, to Sao Paulo's storied Interlagos circuit across a broad window in August, separate from the much larger Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix held there in November. Evidence suggests the festival branding spans several distinct race weekends rather than one continuous event, so specific dates should be confirmed before travel.

Festival Interlagos is the name used for a cluster of racing weekends held at the Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace, widely known as Interlagos, the Sao Paulo circuit famous worldwide as the home of the Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The clearest asset here is the venue: Interlagos is one of Brazil's most storied racing circuits, home to the Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix and a fixture of national motorsport since the 1940s, so any race weekend at the track puts spectators at a course with genuine pedigree

02

The mystery stays covered

Festival Interlagos offers a lower-cost, lower-crowd way to experience the circuit compared with Grand Prix week, built around Brazil's popular national Stock Car series rather than international Formula 1 competition

03

The city starts moving

Because the branding appears to bundle multiple race weekends across August, the event functions more as a season than a single fixed festival
