Carnival atmosphere is in the air and preparations are well underway for celebrations throughout the Algarve! Prepare to Enjoy!
These festivities provide insight into the sense of humour of Portuguese people. Men dress up as women & parades are organised satirising politicians and celebrities. Children have great fun dressing up as different characters!
The town of Loulé is probably the most famous for it’s elaborate parades and costumes. But parades are common throughout many towns in the Algarve, including Portimão.
We recommend:
Odiáxere Carnival celebrations (4 to 8 March). Parades 6 & 8 March, 15:00
Loulé Parades, 6, 7, 8 March - Avenida José da Costa Mealha, from 15:00
