Coro Ars Vocalis and Adriana Moreira (fado singer)

A Night of Song in the Portuguese Language. Coro Ars Vocalis joins fado singer Adriana Moreira for an emotional journey through the music that connects us — from the soul of Portuguese fado to the vibrant sounds of Brazil.

Come and feel the magic of this musical union!

A celebration of the word, the language, and the melodies that unite us far more than they divide us.

Musical direction: Helena Venda Lima

On St. James’s Day, join this fun and emotional celebration in the heart of Esposende!

A medieval pilgrim, a social media influencer, and a CrossFit fanatic walk into… a bar on the Camino! Between walking sticks and selfie sticks, scallop shells and energy bars, an unexpected encounter unfolds where time blends and stories intertwine on the way to Compostela.

A comedy with soul, blisters on its feet, and a heart on pilgrimage.

Performed by actors from Esposende’s amateur theatre groups (CREARTE Project).
