At Rotunda da Boavista, São João can already be lived. The amusement spaces are already installed there, with the usual carousels, bumper cars, table football, stalls with “farturas”, cotton candy, popcorns, “pão com chouriço” (bread with traditional Portuguese sausage) and sardines, in addition to the Ferris wheel.

The second edition of Serralves em Luz is back with a night exhibition outdoors.

Due to the celebrations of São João in the city, the Luís I bridge will be closed for circulation either to pedestrians or of the metro.

S. João can be felt all over the city, but everything is concentrated on the night of the 23rd to the 24th. Two years after, the party is back to the city streets, with a program for everyone. It is therefore advisable to use public transports, for better mobility of people and vehicles. There will be some traffic constraints, including on the Luís I Bridge.

This Summer there will be more options for sports activities and in more neighborhoods of the city. The third edition of the municipal program Desporto no Bairro, presented at the end of Tuesday afternoon, now features another modality – street basket, which joins breaking, surf and skate – and aims to reach more than 1000 children and young people.

The bathing season began a few days ago on the beaches of Porto and, on Tuesday morning, the most recent Blue Flag awarded to a beach in the city was hoisted. Praia do Aquário now holds the award for environmental quality, increasing the total number of Blue Flag beaches in Porto to nine.

Unlike the biblical text, in the case of NOS Primavera Sound, rest came to the end of the third day. Festivalgoers attended three days (and nights) full of music, on the comeback of the event to Parque da Cidade, after the years of pandemic – according to the organization, the venue received 100 thousand visitors.

The Praia Internacional will host competitions of different sports until August. As it has happened in recent years, the summer sports season in Porto is made with the feet on the sand. The Beach Stadium is already installed in its usual place, next to Edifício Transparente, ready to host this Friday and Saturday, 10 and 11 June, its first event: Beach Korfball Portugal Open.
