Venue
Lisboa is the sunny, hilly capital of Portugal, located on the Tagus River estuary near the Atlantic Ocean.
As one of Europe’s oldest cities, it blends over 30 centuries of history with modern culture, known for its historic Alfama district, iconic yellow trams, white-bleached limestone buildings, and vibrant Fado music scene.
Founded by Phoenicians and later ruled by Romans and Moors, it boasts a rich, diverse heritage, featuring landmarks like the Belém Tower and Jerónimos Monastery.
Built on seven hills, it offers dramatic views and a mild, sunny climate, making it a year-round destination. Known for its diverse districts, including the medieval, narrow streets of Alfama, the trendy, lively Bairro Alto, and the grand, rebuilt downtown area known as the Baixa.
It is a vibrant, cosmopolitan city known for its gastronomy, seafood, and proximity to beaches and coastal towns like Cascais and Sintra.
Officially the westernmost capital in continental Europe.
