About this activity
Itinerary
No visit to Lisboa is complete without a Fado experience. Started in early 2019, #LisboaLove FADO @ Alfama is the ultimate event to live and feel Portuguese Lisboa's traditional music.
Starting at 5PM on Friday’s and Tuesday's. It will begin with a short visit of the beautiful Alfama neighborhood, where our Fado experience takes place. You’ll hear about some of our traditions and culture and a brief introduction to the history of Fado, to set the context for our evening.
This will be followed by a 40-minute tribute concert to Amalia Rodrigues, Portugal’s most famous and well-loved Fado singer. I will add some commentary during the concert to explain the essence and meaning of Amalia’s Fado and why it is such a huge part of the Portuguese soul and culture.
Since it is afternoon you may have walked a lot in our hilly city already, so we'll serve a snack of traditional petiscos. There's no Fado without some wine and olives too.
But don't worry - I'm not singing :) A highly talented Fado singer and musicians are performing for you!
Stop At:
• Largo do Chafariz de Dentro, Lisbon 1100-139 Portugal
• Alfama, Lisbon Portugal
