Events

If there is a characteristic that distinguishes the festivities of São João de Braga, it is its history, so old, grandiose and memorable, made by the people of its community.

Born in 1150, when a church dedicated to St. John was founded in the city of Braga, the festivities have had their own evolution over the centuries, culminating in what are currently the largest festivals in the city of Braga, thanks to the involvement of the City Council and the city's Commercial Association.

Thus, from the 17th to the 24th of June, there are many offers provided, from the traditional parade of Gigantones and Cabeçudos, ethnographic and historical processions or religious processions, to concerts by numerous and varied artists, which will fill the streets with music and color, or the long-awaited Pyromusical Show on the 24th.
