Curitiba’s October events guide covers Friday, Oct. 16, through the end of the month, though most listings don’t provide ticket prices. It includes talks, dance events, rock and hip-hop shows, a Halloween party and an Oct. 31 concert featuring Solomun and Vintage Culture. The listings come from Agenda Curitiba, the city’s official events agenda, and the tourism office’s listing for the Halloween concert.
A varied schedule, limited price information
On Friday, Oct. 16, GET WOMEN CONF26 – FLORIR, described as a women-focused conference, is scheduled for 16:00 at Get Church Curitiba. Bora Dançar Primavera, a spring dance night, follows at 20:00 at Sociedade Morgenau. At 21:00, Basement Cultural hosts Braza em Curitiba: Baile Cítrico Utópico Lunar, a Brazilian music night. The agenda lists no prices for any of the three events.
Saturday begins with a free public lecture in Portuguese, “Bioenergias e Desempenho da Consciência,” at 14:30 at IIPC (Instituto Internacional de Projeciologia e Conscienciologia). The institute also lists “EnergoLab+ – Laboratórios de Técnicas Energéticas Positivas” at 17:00, but gives no price. Newstar is scheduled for 19:00 at Rua Mateus Leme, 1719; the guide offers no further description or price.
The Brasil Hip Hop Festival takes place at 20:00 on Oct. 17 at Barão Hall. No price appears in the guide, which tells readers to check the venue’s channels for the line-up. At the same time, Detroit Club hosts Velora – Show de Lançamento Oficial (Anos 80 & 90), a launch show centered on music from the 1980s and 1990s.
On Sunday, Oct. 18, Concept Hall hosts “Onde a Fé Inspira, o Axé Fortalece e a União Transforma Vidas,” described as a faith and community gathering, during the afternoon. MotorBlack Rock Festival starts at 15:00 at Clay Highway Bar. Neither listing gives a price.
RotaryOKÊ is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 22, at 19:00 at Clay Highway Bar, without a description or price. On Saturday, Oct. 24, IIPC offers a second free public lecture, “Maturidade Integral e Uso do Tempo,” at 14:30. Festa Halloween a Fantasia do Clay starts at 20:00 at Clay Highway Bar, but the guide doesn’t list a price.
Oct. 31 concert and travel advice
Solomun and Vintage Culture headline the Oct. 31 event at Pedreira Paulo Leminski, Rua João Gava, 970. The concert starts at 14:00 and runs into the night, and Ingresse sells the tickets. The guide describes the open-air quarry setting as shifting from daylight through sunset and into darkness. Because the venue sits outside the city centre, it recommends arranging the trip home in advance; late-night returns are easier by ride-hailing app or taxi than by bus.
Other Oct. 31 listings include IIPC’s Energo Experience – Homeostase Energética at 14:30, Hell(oween) of Fame at 20:00 at Changes, and The Eurodance Tour Internacional at 20:00 at Clay Highway Bar. Neither of the last two listings includes a ticket price.
The guide describes October in Curitiba as spring, a time when weather can change quickly. It recommends packing a light waterproof layer and a jumper. Readers should confirm prices and start times with organizers, since most listings omit prices. Most events take place in Portuguese, and the guide says a few words of the language can help at the door. For weekly updates, it directs readers to Agenda Curitiba and official Turismo Curitiba pages.
The article also displayed Brazil presidential runoff prediction-market figures timestamped Oct. 16, 2026, at 01:20 ET (01:20 Lisbon). Polymarket priced Flávio Bolsonaro at 79.1% and Lula at 20.5%, with US$184 million traded. Kalshi, which the guide describes as regulated in the U.S. by the CFTC, showed Flávio Bolsonaro at 79% and Lula at 22%. The guide warned that these figures represent bets, not polls, and can move quickly.
The guide’s sources were agenda.curitiba.br, turismo.curitiba.pr.gov.br, ingresse.com and Bem Paraná, retrieved Oct. 15, 2026. The Rio Times’ automated newsroom system produced the article, which lists Matthias Camenzind as Editor-in-Chief.
