T1’s Cia dos Presentes sits on the main landside corridor
Cia dos Presentes in Terminal 1 is the default “grab a gift before security” stop at Brasília’s Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport. It’s a general gifts shop, so think souvenirs, small toys, travel-sized items, and last‑minute presents rather than duty free liquor or perfume. You’ll find it in T1, handy if you’re meeting someone curbside and want something in hand before they walk out.
Stock leans toward easy carry-on picks: mugs, keychains, magnets, stuffed mascots, and small decor tied to Brasília and Brazil. Prices land in the midrange compared with the rest of T1; figure R$20–R$40 for small souvenirs and upward from there for larger gift items. If you need something that won’t raise an eyebrow at security, focus on soft goods and paper goods instead of anything sharp or liquid-heavy.
Hours can shift with flight banks, but shops in T1 usually run from early morning departures through the late evening bank, so you’re generally covered on daytime connections. Expect basic card acceptance; bring a physical card since tap-to-pay can be hit or miss in older terminals across Brazil. If you’re short on time, give yourself five minutes: two to scan shelves, one to decide, two to pay.
The practical play: walk past Cia dos Presentes once, clock prices and souvenir types, then loop back only if you don’t see something better airside after security in T1.
