September is synonymous with the cultural rentrée, so you can start making a note in your diary of events such as the Belém Book Festival. From September 4 to 7, the gardens of the official residence of the President of the Republic will host the 8th edition of the initiative.
Organized by the Presidency of the Republic, in partnership with the Portuguese Association of Publishers and Booksellers and the Lisbon Libraries, the event promises to surprise with various authors, publishing news and much more.
With free admission, the program includes educational games, debates, book presentations and autograph sessions. However, one of the highlights of the cultural entertainment is the concerts with big names in Portuguese music.
