Early opening and new editions of Sunset and Sunrise at the Falls
Iguazu National Park in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná, Brazil, expands its programming during July school holidays with early opening one hour earlier and offers extra editions of contemplation experiences. Between July 11 and 26, the park opens at 8am instead of the conventional time.
During the school holiday period, the park will operate with extended hours to accommodate the increase in visitors. The early opening at 8am occurs between July 11 and 26.
In addition to regular dates, the Sunset at the Falls experience will also be offered on Wednesdays (July 15, 22, and 29), with last boarding at 5pm. On July 29, there will be an extra edition of Sunrise at the Falls with single boarding at 6am and breakfast included.
Both contemplation experiences operate in all weather conditions and have limited participant capacity. The ticket guarantees access to the park throughout the day, plus exclusive stay after regular visiting hours end.
The park recommends purchasing tickets in advance on the official website. In addition to contemplation experiences, the Park offers the São João Circuit, Cataratas Bike Path, Usina Space, and revitalized trails. Some attractions require separate tickets.
Two new restaurants — Cocar (300 seats) and Canoas Mirim (120 seats) — offer dining options. On Saturdays, local artisans and producers display and sell their work.
