Van Gogh in Campina Grande: What the Show Is
Van Gogh in Campina Grande brings the blockbuster immersive-exhibition format to Brazil’s Northeast interior: large-scale projections of the Dutch master’s iconic works, paired with pieces by the Impressionists, in a walk-through multimedia experience.
The format — art plus technology — has drawn huge crowds across Brazil; Paraíba had never hosted an edition until now.
Why Campina Grande, Why Now
Campina Grande, Paraíba’s second city, is famous for hosting ‘O Maior São João do Mundo’ — the world’s biggest June festival — and has been building a year-round events calendar beyond it.
Landing the Van Gogh exhibition signals the city’s pull for touring cultural productions, helped by the modern Partage Shopping venue.
The Wider Weekend in Paraíba
The exhibition anchors a strong cultural weekend in the state: the Caminhos do Frio circuit’s events run in parallel across the Paraíba highlands.
For expats based in João Pessoa or Recife, Campina Grande is an easy day or overnight trip — around two hours from the coast.
Practical Notes for Visitors
Tickets are sold through ingresso.com; immersive shows run timed sessions, so book a slot rather than walking in.
The season is officially short — if you are planning a Paraíba trip in the coming weeks, put the exhibition at the top of the list before it moves on.
