• Retail hours vary by city under labor agreements called CCTs, with places like Piracicaba, Limeira and Belo Horizonte allowing limited opening while other cities keep most shops shut.
• Public transport runs on holiday timetables, and systems such as Campo Grande’s add reserve buses and live monitoring to match demand.
• In São Paulo, the weekday car‑rotation rule known as rodízio is not in force on the holiday, and the city activates leisure bike lanes.
