The announcement of the cancellation was made on Wednesday (10), one month before the event. In a statement, City Hall reported that the decision was motivated by financial problems faced by the municipality, mainly due to lower-than-expected revenue collection for this year, which led to spending restraint. "In recent weeks, there has been a significant drop in estimated revenues, due to the frustration of the revenue forecast for the period and the reassessment of revenue projections for the 2026 financial year. This context directly impacted the Municipality's financial capacity, requiring the adoption of adjustment measures and greater rigor in fiscal and budgetary management." Alongside Carnival, the Milk Festival, which is promoted by the City Hall in partnership with local entities, is one of the most important events in Batatais and, since 2022, after the pandemic, it has been held without interruption.
