The 2026 Campeonato Brasileiro Série C is a football competition held in Brazil, equivalent to the third division. It began on 4 April and will end on 25 October 2026.[1]

Twenty teams will compete in the tournament, twelve returning from the 2025 season, four promoted from the 2025 Campeonato Brasileiro Série D (Barra, Inter de Limeira, Maranhão and Santa Cruz)[2] and four relegated from the 2025 Campeonato Brasileiro Série B (Amazonas, Ferroviária, Paysandu and Volta Redonda).[3]

Format

[edit]

The first stage will have one group where each team played the other teams in a single round-robin tournament. The top eight teams advance to the second stage, while the bottom two are relegated, as a part of the expansion planned for the division. In the second stage, the teams are divided into two groups of four teams each. Each group will be played on a home-and-away round-robin basis. The top two teams of each group will be promoted to the Série B, while the group winners will advance to the finals.[4]
