Latin America’s largest automotive repair technical event returns to São Paulo from July 24 to 26

Oficina Brasil Conecta, presented as the largest automotive repair technical event in Latin America, expects to bring together more than 10 thousand mechanics and professionals in the sector in its 2026 edition. The meeting will take place from July 24 to 26, at the Transamerica Expo Center, in Santo Amaro, in the south of São Paulo, with free admission for those who work in the area.

Aimed at mechanics, workshop managers, students, manufacturers, distributors and specialists, the event proposes an immersion in technical training, professional updating and knowledge exchange. The proposal, according to the organization, is to bring together professionals, industry and educational institutions and expand access to qualification, regardless of the size of the workshop or the region of the country. With in-depth technical content, the organization is committed to democratizing knowledge and generating an impact on the trajectory of thousands of independent repairers.

The meeting takes place at a time of profound transformations in repair, driven by the electrification of the fleet, connectivity and the increasing complexity of vehicles – factors that have made the technical upgrade decisive for the competitiveness of workshops and independent repairers.

The program brings together technical lectures, management debates and product demonstrations. Participants will be able to obtain certifications by thematic track and also by the lectures attended — a way of recognizing the commitment to continuous professional development and an additional attraction for those who need to prove qualification in the market.

Another highlight is gamification: by interacting with the activities over the three days, visitors accumulate points and compete for prizes and experiences, a mechanism designed to stimulate engagement and networking among the most active mechanics. According to the organization, participation throughout the program can yield relevant awards, in an effort to modernize and strengthen workshops throughout the country.

By bringing together people, brands and ideas in the same space, the event reinforces the weight of repair within the automotive chain — a link that, at the end, keeps the Brazilian fleet running. The organization’s bet is to consolidate the meeting as a reference for those looking for innovation, updating and opportunities for growth in the profession.

Oficina Brasil Conecta is conceived and organized by Oficina Brasil, an automotive aftermarket content and training ecosystem that has been operating for more than 35 years and brings together more than 212 thousand repairers, with a presence in about 53 thousand workshops across the country. Registration is free and can be done on the event’s official website .
