Municipality of MT cancels 4 national shows after government blocks amendments

The Municipality of Mirassol d'Oeste, 297 km from Cuiabá, canceled the 43rd Festa do Peão and the 25th Expossol, which were scheduled to take place between the 2nd and 5th of December, with shows by four national attractions. According to the city hall, the decision was motivated by spending cuts promoted by the government of Mato Grosso, which affected the availability of resources to hold the event.

In the note, the Municipality of Mirassol d'Oeste and the Rural Union recognized the importance of the festival for culture, leisure and the city's economy and thanked the population for their understanding. The entities did not say whether the event could be held on another date.
