What to visit in Lisbon

Talking about music, Lisbon is not all about Fado, the typical melancholic song that is the most well known Portuguese soundtrack for our somewhat blue state of mind. But times change, and cities character also. As a matter of fact, Lisbon became, since the end of last millennium, one of most vibrant European cultural spots. And in what concerns to music, ahead with Fado shows, held in the old neighborhoods, you can find an amazing diversity of options if you want to be updated to the most avant-garde music made worldwide

Si eres un amante de las músicas del mundo, el patrimonio de Lisboa como punto de contacto con un antiguo imperio extendido desde Asia hasta América del Sur seguro que hace que te sea fácil encontrar alternativas de tu gusto. El icono de la música popular brasileña Ney Matogrosso, o mundialmente conocido como Cape Verde Morna, cuyo cantabte es Cesária Évora, es un buen ejemplo de cómo puedes acercarte a cualquier parte del mundo en un solo evento musical de Lisboa.

Here you find a non exhaustive list of the music events to be held in Lisbon until May:

And, with the spring/summer Lisbon Summer festivals, the options will increase dramatically. Most well Known are Rock in Rio Lisboa (being held in 2010, after the last 2008 appearance), and the yearly Super Bock/Super Rock and Optimus Alive promising to bring some of the best music around. So, what you are waiting for? Rent one of gorgeous apartments in Lisbon, and take the gig of your life!
