Três Lagoas is a Brazilian municipality in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, in the Centre-West Region of the country. It covers an area of approximately 10,200 km², of which 49 km² is urban area, and its population was estimated at 145,514 inhabitants in 2026, making it the third most populous municipality in the state.
It is located in the east of Mato Grosso do Sul, on the border with the state of São Paulo, and is watered by important watercourses, which explains the name of the city. It was founded on 15 June 1915, although its colonisation began in the 1880s with Luís Correia Neves Neto, Antônio Trajano dos Santos and Protásio Garcia Leal. Its name derives from the three immense lagoons that exist in the central region. The city stands out in the industrial and logistics sector. It is 313 km from Campo Grande, the state capital, and 864 km from Brasília, the federal capital. It borders the Mato Grosso do Sul municipalities of Água Clara, Brasilândia, Inocência and Selvíria, as well as Castilho, in the state of São Paulo.
