The Oeiras festivals are back, and with them the best of Portuguese music. From May 31 to June 16, 17 artists work in the Municipal Garden of Oeiras and the Municipal Park of Miraflores. Among them are David Carreira, Dolphins, Kim Barreiros, Thiago Bettencourt, or Dear Soul. Half a million people are expected this year. “If twenty years ago the parties were attended mainly by people from Oeiras, now we have many people from neighboring municipalities,” he began with a story CM President of the Municipal Council of Oeiras, Isaltino Morais, yesterday during the presentation of the program, which took place on the “roof” of Parque dos Poetas. “This will be another great event because it is increasingly becoming a family party,” Isaltino said, highlighting the “systematic growth of the parties and the fact that not a single incident was recorded.” The concerts, which are free to enter and mostly take place in the city garden, begin on May 31 with “Black Mamba” and end on June 16 with “Kalema.” The only concerts in Parque Urbano de Miraflores are Setima Legian (June 8) and António Sambujo (June 9).
