Picnics must take place exclusively in the museum’s garden. The terrace space is reserved for museum events only. As the museum is a public space, picnics should be kept informal and should not display as a private event. It is important to highlight that picnics must follow rules, instructions, and regulations that guarantee the appropriate use of space, allowing every visitor to enjoy our external area. We remind you that the museum does not schedule dates and times for picnics since during its opening hours, we offer other events open to the general public. For further information on picnics in our space please visit: https://mcb.org.br/pt/visite-o-mcb/piquenique/.
Sports such as hiking, slacklining, jogging, running, practices with balls, and other gadgets are not allowed in the garden or any other museum space. The museum’s garden is a space in which we offer cultural and recreational activities (exhibitions, concerts, lectures, workshops, markets among others) which are developed for public appreciation. Therefore, the garden is not a public park and is subjected to its own rules and regulations, designed to preserve the institution’s environmental heritage.
