Chã Grande, Municipality in Pernambuco, Brazil.

Located 80 kilometers from Recife, Chã Grande extends over an area of 84.9 square kilometers at an elevation of 478 meters above sea level.

The settlement of Chã Grande occurred between 1875 and 1878 when people from Vitória de Santo Antão moved to lands that formed the village of Mumbucas.

The Nordestino do Agricultor Festival takes place in Chã Grande, bringing together regional farmers and showcasing agricultural practices of Pernambuco state.

The municipality provides educational resources to schools, including specialized books about the region, and maintains regular open-air markets for local commerce.
