Inaugural A Festa Portuguesa offers cultural experience linked to trade fair
The inaugural A Festa Portuguesa will offer an array of food and traditional ingredients, olives, wine, live music, kid's entertainment, fado and rancho sessions, beauty pageants, dance acts, and its own Brazilian-styled carnival at Emperor's Palace from 24-27 October 2013.
Linked to the festival is the South African-Portuguese Business Trade Summit 2013 that will be taking place within the four-day Portuguese experience. The international trade show will connect people, companies to the European market that offers untapped possibility for investors, businesses and entrepreneurs.
Show organiser Paula Fernandes' dream to bring an authentic cultural experience to South Africa is finally a reality and one she and team intend to turn into an annual event.
Portugal is a country rich in history and tradition and its influence extends as far south of the Mediterranean as Mozambique, Angola and into South Africa.
Tickets are available at Computicket at R70 per day for adults and R40 for scholars, students and pensioners.
