Experience the Magic of Porto this Christmas and New Year!
Discover Porto during one of the most special times of the year. The city comes alive with lights, music and tradition as it welcomes Christmas and celebrates the arrival of a new year with unique experiences that delight visitors of all ages.
From 29 November, Avenida dos Aliados becomes the heart of the festivities: a giant Christmas tree lights up the square, accompanied by light shows, videomapping and concerts that fill the city with life. Wander through the illuminated streets, visit the Christmas markets full of crafts and local flavours, and soak up the warm atmosphere that embraces Porto throughout the festive season.
On the night of 31 December, Porto celebrates in grand style. Music fills Avenida dos Aliados and the Gardens of the Palácio de Cristal, preparing the city for one of the most anticipated moments of the year: the midnight fireworks, which illuminate the sky above the City Hall and mark the beginning of a new cycle full of energy and hope.
Whether you come with family, friends or as a couple, Porto offers unforgettable experiences to enjoy Christmas and New Year’s Eve with true magic. Join the celebration, immerse yourself in the lights, and savour every moment in a city that transforms winter into pure emotion.
