If the Mundial is your first reason to go to Brazil, you may be interested in sticking around. Even if it's not your first time, you may be interested in sticking around after the event and visiting sites. Both of these are fantastic ideas, and many of you have already been asking how to facilitate this. The Mundial is a really big event, and as such takes a lot of effort to put together and pull off successfully. So we really can't put too much work into everyone's individual plans.

Due to excessively expensive plane ticket costs, Mestre Fran worked out a new date for the Mundial which should make the trip much more affordable for us to attend. We really apologize if this causes any problems for anyone.

There were virtually no more plane tickets available for the original dates, making tickets extremely expensive. Mestre Fran spoke with various companies but could not find enough spaces or a decent price. So we moved the Mundial to the beginning of June, June 7–10. Mestre scored a sweeter price for these new dates.
