Paranavaí

Paranavaí is an agricultural municipality in Northwest Paraná situated at approximately 425 meters elevation across fertile land spanning about 1,200 square kilometers. The region focuses primarily on cassava cultivation, citrus farming, and poultry production.

The municipality was officially established on December 14, 1952, during a period of major agricultural expansion in the region. This growth was connected to the influence of coffee cultivation from São Paulo that drove settlement northward.

The annual Music and Poetry Festival draws performers and artists from across Brazil to celebrate creative expression and regional talent. The event has become a gathering point for cultural exchange and artistic dialogue in the community.

The Edu Chaves Airport provides general aviation services while multiple highways connect the municipality to major economic centers throughout the state. Road access is straightforward for visitors traveling by car or bus.

The State College of Education, Science and Letters offers specialized programs in agricultural sciences and business management. The institution has become an important training center for vocational education in the region.
