Top Portugal Light Shows

Go beyond typical church visits by attending a special event—an audiovisual experience which combines light, music, and stunning architecture at Clerigos Church. Rather than waiting until the day, guarantee your spot by prebooking entry. You can choose from different time slots to suit your schedule, then enter for an immersive experience in a spectacular setting.

Discover the stories and legends that are part of Porto’s identity through an immersive and interactive experience at the Furnas da Alfândega. Porto Legends begins with a journey through 10 of the city’s legends in a 360º audiovisual show featuring projections, animation, music and narration by Pedro Abrunhosa in Portuguese and Jeremy Irons in English. After discovering the legends, it’s time to become part of them. Transform yourself into one of the characters from Porto Legends using Artificial Intelligence and take home a video of your transformation. The adventure culminates in a major new experience: a metaverse (LBVR) experience where the line between discovering and living the legends disappears. Enter this universe, explore virtual environments, interact with the space and complete challenges in a mission to help preserve the city’s memory and intangible heritage. More than discovering the legends of Porto, come and live them.

Journey back to the time when dinosaurs roamed the earth as you explore the digital recreations at Dino Experience Porto. Prebook your admission ticket and experience a different perspective of this prehistoric world—from dino sounds to virtual reality depictions. Enjoy a fun and educational experience that uses modern technology to bring this ancient world to life.

No visit to Portugal would be complete without seeing a fado performance—a UNESCO-listed intangible heritage experience. Avoid disappointment by booking your ticket in advance, and guarantee your spot in this intimate venue in the historic heart of Porto. You get to witness four different fado performances, more than the typical show.

Your tour includes hotel pickup and drop-off from Ponta Delgada.
