The 2026 edition of the ueno Rally del Paraguay will take place from August 27 to 30 in the department of Itapúa and is shaping up to be one of the most challenging and spectacular events on the global calendar. The route includes 22 timed stages, establishing it as the longest rally in the 2026 World Rally Championship in terms of competitive distance.

With the countdown underway, Paraguay is preparing to welcome the world once again and demonstrate that it is up to the task of hosting major international events. The challenge is already underway: to organize the best edition of the longest rally on the 2026 World Rally Championship calendar and turn it into a true celebration of sports, tourism, and national development.
