The centenary of Camilo Pessanha's death, who passed away in 1926, is being commemorated in 2026. Camilo Pessanha is the author of the only poetry book he published during his lifetime, titled Clepsidra.

The work Clepsidra was produced by Edições Lusitânia, under the editorship of Ana de Castro Osório, and constitutes the main literary milestone of the poet.

Poems from this and other books are part of a commemorative exhibition that is being presented at Alma Shopping, allowing visitors to better understand Camilo Pessanha's poetic production.

'Don't stop them now': fans celebrate Freddie Mercury's 80th birthday

Thousands of Queen fans gathered in Montreux, Switzerland, on Saturday to celebrate what would have been Freddie Mercury's 80th birthday. Wearing extravagant outfits inspired by the singer's iconic stage costumes, admirers paid tribute to the legendary vocalist next to the bronze statue erected in 1996 overlooking Lake Geneva. Among those present were fans from as far away as Canberra, Australia, and Japan, as well as representatives of Mercury's family from Feltham, a region near Heathrow Airport, where his family moved after fleeing the Zanzibar Revolution in 1964. The Swiss city was chosen for the celebration as it was Mercury's refuge in his final years and the place where he recorded his last vocals.
