Torneio do Povo (meaning Tournament of the People) was a competition disputed between the most popular Brazilian clubs. The competition was contested from 1971 to 1973. It was organized by the Brazilian Sports Confederation (CBD), and was disputed in the beginning of the year, starting the season [1].

The first edition of the competition was disputed by Atlético Mineiro, Corinthians, Flamengo and Internacional. For the second edition, Bahia was invited. Due to its successful performance in the Campeonato Brasileiro second edition [2], finishing in the fifth place [3], Coritiba was invited to dispute the competition's third edition [4], which was promoted by Flamengo's president at the time, André Richer. André Richer considered the idea of inviting Botafogo, which was the 1972 Campeonato Brasileiro runner-up [5].

The Torneio do Povo was the first national competition won by Coritiba. The competition made the club famous nationwide, and it happened during Coritiba's Golden Age [6].
