What to expect in Curitiba in August

Myllena Vieira, editor at Visite
Editor's tip

August is the heart of winter in Curitiba. In Brazil the seasons are the reverse of those in the Northern Hemisphere. Lows hover around 10.1 °C (50 °F), so a heavy coat and cold-weather clothing are essential, especially at night. Crowds are light, which tends to work in favor of travelers: shorter lines, more peace and quiet, and cheaper lodging. It also rains very little: this is one of the driest months of the year, good for anyone who wants an outdoor itinerary. If the dates line up, it is worth fitting Historic Center Winter Festival (Festival de Inverno do Centro Histórico) into your itinerary: it is what livens up the destination at that time of year.
