Where to watch the New Year’s Eve fireworks in Guarujá
Still no announcement for 2027. 2026 edition At the last celebration, the show lasted 20 minutes and was launched from barges at sea in front of Pitangueiras and Astúrias beaches, the two central points of the city. Since both beaches are in the same bay, you can see the show from almost the entire central beachfront.
The City Hall also set up six stages with concerts, as part of the summer program “Guarujá, Seu Amor no Verão”: Enseada, Canto do Tortugas, Mirante das Galhetas, Perequê, Vicente de Carvalho (Praça 14 Bis) and Morrinhos. For 2027, keep an eye on the official New Year’s Eve news page, which usually brings confirmation in November or December. In Pitangueiras, the most crowded spot, arrive at least an hour early.
Paid parties: Guarujá Golf Club and other options
For those who want a closed venue with open bar, there’s the Guarujá Golf Club, on Av. das Américas, near Praia de Pernambuco, as the anchor party: it’s confirmed for 12/31/2026, with super premium open bar, single sector and close to the stage, but price and line-up still showed as “coming soon” on 09/20/2026. Other venues, such as Réveillon Canoa, Layback Park and Praia Verde Beach Club, only have data from the 2026 edition.

As of 09/26/2026, we couldn’t find an official sales channel for the 2027 edition; sites already advertising tickets are resellers. None of these venues had disclosed 2027 prices or line-ups. Be wary of resellers advertising a “confirmed ticket” with a fixed price before the promoter itself, and only buy through the official channel.

Where to stay for New Year’s Eve in Guarujá
Pitangueiras and Astúrias are right in front of the fireworks, but they’re the most expensive and the first to sell out. Enseada has more supply, calmer water and is a good option for groups and families, with a walk or jog to the central beachfront. Tombo is quieter, next to Astúrias. In the 09/26/2026 search, the options below had availability for 12/30 to 01/02, with a rating of 8 or higher and more than 100 reviews.

How to get to Guarujá from São Paulo
Guarujá is less than 100 km from the capital. The standard route goes along Rodovia dos Imigrantes and Cônego Domênico Rangoni, about 1h30 without traffic, much longer on a holiday weekend. The Santos–Guarujá ferry only makes sense for those already in Santos.
Stress-free arrival on New Year’s Eve
- Flight: those coming from far away land in São Paulo; compare fares to Congonhas or Guarulhos, with cash or miles, on FlipMilhas.
- Car: it’s the most common way to drive down the mountain and get around between beaches; compare rental companies in São Paulo on Rentcars. Avoid the afternoon of the 31st and the morning of the 1st on Imigrantes and Anchieta.
- Bus: from Terminal Jabaquara in São Paulo, the trip takes about 1h35; the fare started at R$ 58 per leg in Aug/2025, check the current price.
- Insurance (optional): compare domestic coverage on Seguros Promo.
How to get back after midnight
Leaving the beachfront right after the fireworks is the slowest moment of the night. If you’re staying within a 20- or 30-minute walk of the fireworks spot, walk out — it’s faster than waiting for a ride. If you’re relying on a ride app, wait 30 to 40 minutes before requesting the car, when surge pricing starts to drop. There was no confirmation of special public transport service for New Year’s Eve 2027 as of Sep/2026.
Watch out for these on New Year’s Eve in Guarujá
- Highway: Imigrantes and Anchieta get congested on the afternoon of the 31st and the morning of the 1st; leave early or count on more than 3 hours.
- Ride apps: surge pricing can triple between 11 pm and 1 am.
- Phone: signal often drops with the crowd; agree on a fixed meeting point with your group.
- Accommodation: Pitangueiras and Astúrias sell out first; in December, only far or expensive options are left.
- Tickets: be wary of unofficial resellers for closed parties; buy only through the promoter’s channel.
January 1st in Guarujá
The 1st starts off calm: some shops open with reduced hours, but restaurants and beach kiosks are running. It’s a good day for Enseada, with more than 5 km of sand and calm water, which tends to be less crowded than Pitangueiras.
Families, kids and accessibility
With small children, Enseada has calmer, shallower water than Pitangueiras, plus kiosks and the Acqua Mundo aquarium nearby. At fireworks time, the Pitangueiras crowd works against you; many families prefer to watch from a spot further away or from their accommodation’s balcony.
The Pitangueiras and Enseada beachfronts have a flat, wide boardwalk, which helps wheelchair users and people with reduced mobility; the biggest obstacle is the crowd, not the pavement. Arrive well before midnight and confirm accessibility at paid parties directly with each promoter.
Weather in Guarujá on New Year’s Eve: what to pack
December and January are the hottest months on the São Paulo coast, with quick afternoon rain showers. Pack light clothing, preferably white, a thin rain jacket and sunscreen: the Baixada Santista sun is strong even when it’s cloudy.
