Between March and April 2025, the city of Minas Gerais will host the opening of the International Cup and two stages of the World Cup, events that will take thousands of people to Araxaense lands
Holding major sporting events in a city is always capable of leaving the most different types of legacies for the general population. In the case of Araxá, after more than 20 years of hosting the International Mountain Bike Cup, the municipality reached a new level of demand for accommodation, with the unprecedented hosting of the WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series, with the UCI MTB World Cup in Short Track (XCC) and Olympic Cross Country (XCO) modalities taking place for the first time in 2024, and now confirmed for a double round in 2025.
If at the end of 2023 there were a maximum of ten houses registered for rent throughout the municipality, the news is good for those who will be in Araxá in 2025, closely following the three mountain biking weekends in the municipality: there are more than 200 houses currently registered and the supply movement is growing. Many families are planning to move in with relatives to rent their homes during the event period. This new market niche in the city is generating jobs and income for the people of Araxa and with a greater supply of properties, prices are becoming fairer.
Whether they are athletes, exhibitors or the general public, simply access the link https://forms.gle/BKaSbEuyqWN7WqDZ6 and fill out the form according to your needs, so that you can be offered accommodation according to what you are looking for.
So that the number of houses available for rent could increase, always taking into account the need to have quality in this offer, the organization of both competitions counted on an important local partner in this work, AXA Consultoria Imobiliária, which is connected to other real estate agencies and also directly to the house owners. In addition to carrying out the registration, the company made sure to visit the properties to ensure that all those selected were up to quality standards and able to serve customers. Those interested in putting their property up for rent should contact us via WhatsApp (34) 3438-0444.
