30 Free Online Brazilian Magazines

30 Free Online Brazilian Magazines

posted on March 29, 2013

Free Brazilian Magazines to read online

Below is a list of 30 Brazilian magazines on a wide variety of subjects: social issues, health, food, business, technology, lifestyle, sports, cars, celebrities, movies, and more.

Reading is a great, important way to increase your Portuguese vocabulary and learn more about the Brazilian culture. I mention some specific benefits of reading for language learning in this other post, along with a few book suggestions.

If you are going to take the Celpe-Bras proficiency test, this is a must-do: Get in the habit of reading in Portuguese every day. Celpe-Bras uses authentic materials including articles from several of the magazines below. In addition, being familiar with different aspects of Brazilian culture will be very beneficial to your Celpe-Bras performance.

A few of the magazines below may require registration. When I checked, the registration was free and did not require having a CPF.

This list is in no particular order.

Language learning tip: Read out loud. It will make a big difference in your pronunciation, fluency, and vocabulary retention.

Boas leituras!
