Bombarda Arts District is also the place to savour a grand Christmas. The three Saturdays before Xmas Day, fun and joy are back to the arts quarter in Porto; expect dance, music, creative workshops, an urban art market, videomapping and an installation with Xmas trees especially prepared for the season by artists from Porto, which will later be donated to Charity in town.
This programme is jointly organised with local traders and all activities are access free.
