This is the time of year that everyone in Portugal waits for, but why is it? The Carnation Revolution, on April 25, 1974, ended a 48-year dictatorship and brought democracy. It started with a song on the radio and continued with carnations in rifle barrels. It’s the day that changed Portugal forever.

Delve into an evening with an engaging art talk on how the revolution shaped Portuguese art and culture. Next, dive into a riveting documentary that brings this historic moment to life through powerful images. Wrap up the night with a light Portuguese buffet & wine and meet new, interesting people.

Don’t miss out on this must-attend event to understand and connect with the country you now call home.

⚠️This event is not only for foreigners, also Portuguese will be surprised to learn where some “traditional” habits really come from…
