Agriculture and live entertainment will share the spotlight at ExpoManacá 2026, a four-day fair scheduled for October 28–31 in Manacapuru, in the Brazilian Amazon. The event will be held at the Parque do Ingá Cultural Complex and is organized by the municipal government.
The announced national music lineup includes Léo Foguete on October 29, Allanzinho on October 30 and Roberta Miranda on October 31. Regional performers are also expected to appear on the main stage and on an alternative stage located within the exhibition area.
Beyond the concerts, visitors will be able to explore activities related to animal exhibitions, family farming, handicrafts and the sale of regional products. A food court is also planned, creating space for local culinary businesses to present their offerings to event visitors.
The combination of agricultural displays and entertainment reflects the format used at previous editions. Coverage of the 2025 fair by Amazônia Incrível described a program that included rodeo events, food offerings and stands operated by agribusiness companies. That reporting provides context for the event’s development, but the activities of one edition should not be assumed to form part of another year’s program unless separately confirmed.
ExpoManacá also has a broader institutional context. In May 2025, Amazonas State Law No. 7,509 added the Manacapuru agricultural exhibition to the state’s official calendar of events, providing for its annual observance in October. The measure formally recognizes the fair within the state’s event calendar, although it does not by itself establish the event’s economic impact or visitor numbers.
For 2026, organizers have also announced free professional training courses during the mornings and afternoons. Registration information and course schedules are expected to be released through the municipality’s official channels. The full timetable for the entertainment program has not been detailed in the published announcements reviewed for this article.
For Manacapuru, the fair offers a setting in which agricultural production, regional food, commerce and cultural performances can be presented together. It may also provide a platform for local businesses to reach visitors who come primarily for the music or other attractions.
The extent of the event’s contribution to tourism and local business activity remains an open question. Visitor counts, accommodation demand, vendor sales and post-event economic data would help determine whether the fair’s mix of agriculture and entertainment produces benefits beyond the four days of programming.
