This February 18-20, enjoy the famous Orange Festival in Silves

– February 10, 2022

Silves is gearing up to host its annual orange festival ‘Mostra Silves – Capital da Laranja’ which aims to promote the delicious taste and juiciness of its locally-grown oranges.

Taking place between February 18 and 20, the festival will start at 10am every day, at Silve’s Park, near the river. The event will bring together local farmers and producers of orange-based products who will showcase all the different ways that the oranges can be used for mouthwatering creations, from a simple glass of juice to sweets and liqueurs. The event will also feature live music, with a performance by iconic Portuguese artist Jorge Palma on February 19, and the entrance is free.

The festival will have stands selling not only locally produced goods connected to the citrus production, but also local vine, regional products, local sweets, handicrafts, food stands, and also stands featuring local initiatives.

The full programme (in Portuguese) can be seen here.
