On the night of December 31 (New Year’s Eve), in addition to the two new circus performances, a big celebration will take place in the Monchique Heliport area with free admission!
A concert by the brand new Orquestra Vicentina to warm and liven up this special moment at the top of the mountains…
Delicious foods and drinks made by people from the highlands and beyond…
And of course: the typical raisins and champagne will not be missing out!

This orchestra is composed by a group of musicians of different nationalities and backgrounds, whose joining results in a fusion of sounds and cultures.
The group was created in 2018 and is made up of musicians living and working in the Costa Vicentina.
It is currently directed by André Duarte (Júnior).
