Réveillon Saudade Cumbuco: Six Days by the Lagoa do Cauípe
The first Réveillon Saudade runs from Saturday 26 to Thursday 31 December 2026. It takes place on Praia de Cumbuco, in the municipality of Caucaia, about 30 km from Fortaleza.
Each day has two parts. Afternoons belong to the Saudade Beach Club, and the Arena Saudade hosts five night parties from 27 December.
Four entertainment groups stand behind the event: On Play, Privilège, Today and Wav Eventos. The official site warns that the line-up and daily programme may still change.
The Night Line-up, From Vintage Culture to Wesley Safadão
Each arena night carries its own theme. Bons Ventos on Sunday 27 December has Vintage Culture, Bruno Be, Doozie and Boss.
Maré on Monday 28 December pairs the singer Rey Vaqueiro with the DJ duo Dubdogz, alongside Haas, Ray and Samantha. Sintonia on Tuesday 29 December has Natanzinho Lima, Eric Land, DJ Topo, Cactunes and Que Se Funkey.
Essência on Wednesday 30 December brings Dennis, Henry Freitas, D.Marco, John and Ray. The New Year’s Eve party has Wesley Safadão and Petroski, with D.Marco, Enjoy, John and Samantha.
Partner sellers also list afternoon sets at the beach club, opening with Goodtimes by Illusionize on 26 December. Aline Rocha and Viot follow on 28 December, and Antdot and Tato on 29 December.
Who Vintage Culture Is
Vintage Culture is the stage name of Lukas Ruiz, a house DJ and producer born in Mato Grosso do Sul in 1993. He is among the best-known Brazilian names in electronic music abroad.
He reached number 9 in the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll in 2024, a year after placing tenth. He also manages the Brazilian label Só Track Boa.
His set opens the arena programme, so the first night is the one most tied to electronic music. Later nights mix electronic acts with forró, funk and other popular Brazilian styles.
Passes, Prices and the Gender Split
Full Experience covers all six days, with five beach club afternoons and five arena nights. Festas Noturnas covers the five nights only.
Both include a full premium open bar at night and premium open food on New Year’s Eve. Single-party tickets are announced as coming soon.
The Meu Bilhete page blocked automated access when checked on 27 September. The figures below therefore come from partner sellers named by or linked to the event.
We Go Out, a discount partner that links to Meu Bilhete, said the third lot was on sale. Its night pass started at R$3,300 (about US$636) for women and R$4,180 (about US$805) for men.
Those figures already include its 5% discount, and the platform fee comes on top. Conversions use 5.19 reais per US dollar, the open.er-api.com rate on 27 September 2026.
INJOY, the official travel partner, sells the five nights from R$3,190 (about US$615) for women and R$3,990 (about US$769) for men. It sells them only together with accommodation or flights.
Its package with the beach club starts at R$4,090 (about US$788) for women and R$5,390 (about US$1,039) for men. Prices rise with each new lot, and cards allow up to 12 instalments.
Where It Happens and How to Get There
Cumbuco lies in Caucaia, next to Fortaleza, with about 4 km of beach, dunes and lagoons. Its steady wind has made it one of Brazil’s best-known kitesurfing spots.
The event structure stands on the banks of the Lagoa do Cauípe, where the lagoon meets the sea. It is a few steps from the Vila Galé Collection Sunset Cumbuco, the official hotel, and the Mira Beach Club.
The nearest airport is Fortaleza’s Pinto Martins International Airport, about 40 minutes away by road. Visitors usually continue by taxi, ride app, transfer or hire car.
Practical Notes for Foreign Visitors
Entry is strictly for over-18s, and official photo ID is required at the gate. Foreign visitors should carry their passport, since the organisers list no other accepted documents.
Meu Bilhete limits purchases to five tickets per CPF, Brazil’s individual taxpayer number. The event does not say how buyers without a CPF should proceed, so the INJOY bundles may prove simpler.
INJOY lists seven-night stays in its selected hotels from R$2,023 (about US$390) per person. Rooms in Cumbuco are in high demand over New Year, so early booking matters.
The beach club runs a paid bar by day, while the arena nights are open bar. The daytime programme also includes yoga, beach sports, a kitesurf workshop and a recovery area.
What Has Not Been Published
The organisers have not published official start times. We Go Out lists the opening at 3 p.m. on 26 December and the arena nights at 11 p.m.
No capacity figure has been released, and prices for single-party tickets are not yet known. The official site also states that line-up, programme and prices may change without notice.
