Experience the Soul of Lisbon Through Fado

Without a doubt, Fado is a must-see for anyone visiting Lisbon.

Born from the very soul of the Portuguese people, Fado is a deeply emotional music genre, marked by haunting melodies and melancholic lyrics that tell stories of love, loss, and longing. Its unique cultural value has earned Fado a well-deserved place on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list.

Enjoy a live Fado performance in various intimate locations in one of Lisbon’s most iconic neighbourhoods, getting to experience this staple of Portuguese culture up close.

The concert lasts 50 minutes, with a 10 minute interval. Depending on the day, the meeting point changes, so please ensure you are going to the correct meeting point:

Thursday: Pavilhão Chinês

Friday and Saturday: Reservátorio da Patriarcal

Sunday: EmbaiXada
