Jornal do Algarve9 September 2026 at 16:02

Lagoa lived, in recent days, the celebrations of the municipal holiday and the Festivities in Honor of Our Lady of Light, in a program that combined tradition, faith, culture and music. The religious dimension included eucharistic celebrations and the traditional Grand Procession in Honor of Our Lady of Light.

On September 5th, the 3rd Portuguese Popular Music Meeting of Lagoa took place, which featured the participation of Grupo de Cantares Fonte Nova, from Estômbar, which represented Lagoa, accompanied by Grupo de Cavaquinhos "Luz do Monte", from Monte Abraão-Massamá, Grupo de Cantares dos Amigos da Pedreira, from Silves, Grupo Coral e Etnográfico Vozes de Almodôvar and Grupo de Música Popular Portuguesa Amodantiga, from Lagos.

On September 6th, Largo do Auditório Carlos do Carmo received the "Celebrar Lagoa" program, an initiative that brought together twenty-one local artists on a stage that brought together music, crafts, gastronomy and entertainment.

The program continued on September 7th with a dance organized by Manel João, with the closing taking place on September 8th, the date on which the religious celebrations, the traditional procession and a concert by Bárbara Bandeira took place.

"The Feiras Novas are a meeting point"

José Pedro Ribeiro Pereira, a 22-year-old young man from Fontão, won the contest to create the image for the Feiras Novas, a traditional pilgrimage in the Minho region. His proposal placed the woman of the Feiras Novas as the central figure, surrounded by a family sequence with the grandfather, the son, and the grandson, representing what, for José Pedro, distinguishes the pilgrimage: the people who come together. The young man, who has been drawing since childhood, did not expect the amount of positive reactions his work received, considering that this victory represents a step towards what he has wanted to do since he was little.
