The Autonomous Region of Madeira invested almost 250 thousand euros in Festival Colombo 2026. This amount is destined for the organization and promotion of the event that promises to be a landmark in the region's tourism and cultural calendar.
The festival takes place from September 17 to 20 in Porto Santo, one of the islands of the Madeira archipelago. The event is presented as a tourism and cultural program, combining activities aimed at attracting visitors and promoting the cultural richness of the region during that time of year.
Festival Colombo 2026 emerges as a bet by the region to boost tourism in Porto Santo, taking advantage of the transition period between summer and autumn to attract travelers. The significant investment reflects the importance that regional authorities attach to this type of initiative for the local economy.
