Ubarana combines a central square with cultural events and a waterside destination: Prainha de Ubarana is 4 km from Ubarana. In town, festivals and performances take center stage; at Prainha, visitors can enjoy recreation, water sports and scenery along the Rio Fartura.
Ubarana’s central square and culture
Praça e Igreja da Matriz is located on Ubarana’s central square, on Avenida Francisco Pinheiro. Praça da Matriz typically hosts commemorative and cultural events, including the city anniversary, Encontro de Santos Reis, fanfare band gatherings and Carnival. The dates of individual events vary. If you plan to travel for a particular event, check its specific date in advance.
Casa da Cultura e CIT is located at Avenida Francisco Pinheiro 1521. It houses the cultural department as well as the municipality’s tourist information center. The amphitheater at Casa da Cultura e CIT is used for film and theater performances, as well as cultural and tourism events. The central square and amphitheater therefore host different kinds of events: commemorative and cultural events in a public space, and performances and events in the amphitheater.
Festivals with different themes
At the 14th Festival de Teatro de Ubarana, theater groups performed in Ubarana’s squares and neighborhoods from November 7 to 13. The performances were free and intended for all age groups. The festival brought theater to various locations throughout the city; the edition mentioned was a past event and does not establish future dates.
Ubarana’s traditional Festival de Viola focuses on a different cultural theme. At its 13th edition, duos from the city and the region came together to celebrate Brazilian música raiz. Unlike the theater festival, which featured performances in squares and neighborhoods, this festival focuses on musical tradition and duos. This description also refers to a past edition, not an announced date.
Feira Noturna and regional products
Feira Noturna de Ubarana is set up on Avenida Francisco Pinheiro, opposite Praça da Matriz. Its offerings include fruit and vegetables as well as pizzas, pastel, souvenirs, sweets, clothing and electronic goods. The market thus combines food and prepared dishes with other goods and souvenirs. Individual vendors may vary.
In the associated municipality, Cervejaria Burana offers tours. Visitors can learn how craft beer is made and sample the product. Confirm current visiting arrangements before you travel. Engenho Oliveira produces cachaça in many varieties, such as those flavored with toasted coconut, cinnamon, pineapple, grape, coffee, lemon, green apple and mint. The selection may change.
Prainha on the Rio Fartura
Centro de Lazer Gentil Moreira, known as Prainha de Ubarana, is located 4 km from Ubarana on the Rio Fartura. The site includes more than 400 meters of beach and covers an area of 49,500 square meters. Prainha is used for recreation, relaxation, water sports, experiencing nature, enjoying the scenery and cooling off on hot days. If you plan to visit, check current operating and safety conditions in advance. The beach length and total area describe two different aspects of the place: the waterfront and the size of the site.
The 2nd Encontro e Feira Náutica de Ubarana was also held at Centro de Lazer Gentil Moreira. This edition’s program included paramotoring, flyboarding and a nautical fair. This describes a past event program, not future editions.
School groups can visit Pedreira Ubarana in the associated municipality for environmental education. Permission and an appointment are required. These conditions make it an organized option for groups, not a visit available on a spontaneous basis.
