The 2026 São Paulo Grand Prix runs November 6 to 8 at Interlagos. The concerts are at the F1 Fanzone, a separate fan area in the Ayrton Senna Kart Circuit, next to the track. João Gomes plays Friday and Paralamas do Sucesso play Saturday. As of October 15, 2026, the Sunday act has not been announced.
2026 São Paulo Grand Prix concert lineup
| Day/Date | Artist | Stage/Venue | Included with race ticket? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fri, Nov 6 | João Gomes | F1 Fanzone stage, Kartódromo Ayrton Senna | Only with sectors G, H, K, N, R or Porto Bank grandstand (subject to capacity), or a Fanzone ticket |

DJs are also on the Fanzone program. The organizers have not published set times or the order of performances, and say they will release them during event week. Press coverage of the Fanzone schedule says each day ends with a show after the on-track action: after practice on Friday, after qualifying on Saturday and after the race on Sunday.
João Gomes is a piseiro singer. The organizers have not named the Sunday headliner, so do not plan travel around a rumored name.
Other attractions at the Fanzone
- **Drivers' Engagement:** drivers take the stage for interviews and audience interaction on Friday and Saturday.
- **Papo de Grid:** talks with drivers, team principals and other motorsport figures. The schedule is to be announced.
- **Activities:** official F1 simulators, a Pit Stop Challenge and a wind-jet photo experience that mimics race-car speed.
- **Race on screen:** a large LED screen shows the on-track action. The Fanzone has no direct view of the circuit.
- **Retail:** a licensed F1 merchandise store.
Ticket access for the shows
The Fanzone is its own ticketed area. Entry with a race ticket depends on your grandstand sector.
- **Sectors G, H, K, N, R and the Porto Bank grandstand:** these ticket holders can enter the Fanzone on all three days, subject to capacity.
- **Other sectors:** buy a separate Fanzone ticket. This includes sectors off the access list, such as A and D.
- **Fanzone ticket price:** R$620 full price and R$310 half price (meia-entrada). One ticket is valid for all three days.
- **Where to buy:** only through Eventim, the official ticketing partner, at eventim.com.br/f1saopaulo. Sales opened on September 15, 2026.
- **Not included:** a Fanzone ticket does not open the grandstands or the internal areas of the circuit.
- **Re-entry:** Brazilian press reports say the add-on Fanzone ticket allows one entry only, with no re-entry. The official announcement does not mention it, so confirm with Eventim before you leave and return.
Half-price tickets follow Brazil's meia-entrada rules, so check eligibility with Eventim before you buy.
Hospitality and afterparties
We found no named hospitality-only performers and no official afterparty for the weekend as of October 15, 2026. The official F1 hospitality page lists the Paddock Club, Pit Stop Club, Grand Prix Club and local hospitality options, and it names no entertainment acts. If you are buying hospitality, ask the seller in writing what entertainment is included. Our [Brazil VIP hospitality guide](/guides/brazil-vip-hospitality) compares the packages.
Not part of the Grand Prix: Primavera Sound
Primavera Sound São Paulo is a separate festival at the same Autódromo José Carlos Pace on December 5 and 6, 2026. Gorillaz and The Strokes are among the headliners. It has its own tickets and falls a month after the race weekend, so skip it if you are only in town for the Grand Prix.
Practical tips for the shows
- **On-track schedule (local time):** Friday practice at 12:30 and 16:00, Saturday practice at 11:30 and qualifying at 15:00, Sunday race at 14:00. There is no sprint this year.
- **Gates:** the Fanzone entrance is on Av. Jacinto Júlio, next to gate G. Gates open at 8:00 on all three days, subject to change.
- **Do not count on seeing the race from the Fanzone:** it has no track view, only the LED screen. To see cars live, you need a grandstand ticket.
- **Pay with the cashless card:** food and drink purchases are cashless only. Alcohol is sold only to people 18 and over with official photo ID.
- **Dress for open air:** the area is outdoors. Bring sunscreen and a cap, a light jacket for when it cools down and a rain cape if rain is forecast.
- **Keep your exit flexible:** the Sunday show is planned for after the race, so leave extra time to get back from Interlagos.
