The wars leading up to the independence of Portuguese colonies in Africa were devastating, and their history is about to get a major update thanks to Marcelo ordering the unsealing of a trove of previously classified documents. Get a glimpse of what they were like — and what Portugal was like leading up to its […]
Feira da Ladra (which translates as "flea market," but "ladra" also means "thief" in English) is still the biggest new- and used-goods market in Lisbon and all of Portugal, happening every Tuesday and Saturday from around 9h to around 18h, although the quality and the prices aren't what they used to be. Nonetheless, you'll find […]

The Tall Ships are returning to Lisbon after a hiatus due to Covid. An event not to be missed for fans of sailing, history, and old-timey crafts, and this time around, the ships — which are open to visitors — are docking in Alcântara rather than Expo. And there are few sights more stunning than the ships […]
“Prepare yourselvesfor the roaring voice of the God of Joy!”Euripides, The Bacchae. Bacchus, aka Dionysus, as you may have heard, is kind of a party dude. He woulda liked Lisbon... And it's likely that one of his favorite places to indulge would be Museu Lisboa: Teatro Romano .So to honor the coolest of our heavenly […]
Arts, crafts, and artisanal goods, both edible and wearable, all in a get-away-from-it-all setting. Everyone's selling this type of fare in Lisbon these days, and the market held in Jardim da Estrela that runs on the first weekend of every month carries much the same as many others: a decent selection of artisanal jewelry, non-commercial-looking […]

Feira dos Alfarrabistas (used book dealer fair) is a great place to break up the monotony of chain stores in Chiado and pick up something truly unique. Most books here are in Portuguese, but there are always gems in English and French and occasionally other languages. Several sellers also usually carry antique prints, old postcards, and […]
O Mercado de Produtores da Comida Independente (aka "The Independent Food Producers Market"), which used to take place at Praça de São Paulo, now takes over Travessa do Cais to Tojo every Saturday, close to the store run by Comida Independente, the founders of the market. The emphasis here is on freshly and ethically sourced […]
opera, Santos, Arte Antiga, garden, festival, rave
This Belem market (Feira de Antiguidades e Velharias de Belem) takes place on the first and third Sunday every month, and is a better-organized and smaller version of the chaotic Feira da Ladra. It's definitely more middle class. There's an abundance of antiques, used books, watches, and cameras, ceramics old and new, and even furniture, […]
This artisanal market of food, clothes, and trinkets takes place the first Sunday of every month from 10h to 19h in the summer months and to 18h in the winter months on the outdoor terrace of the architecturally stunning — if you're into modern architecture, that is — Centro Cultural de Belem. This is the […]
MAAT (Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia) is typically 9€ but is free on the first Sunday of every month. From 1o-19h

This flea market (Feira de Antiguidades e Velharias de Montijo) isn't in Lisbon, which means the bargains are better and the finds more "authentic," if you will. The record bins have been pretty good especially. Take the ferry from Cais do Sodre to Montijo for around €3. See the ferry schedules. The market runs every […]

Bazar no Quartel, formerly known as Feira do Intendente, may not be Feira da Ladra, but it's a more decent and civilized place to find locally made art, handmade things of all kinds, second-hand clothes, things in jars, live music, and whatnot, on the third Sunday of every month, sold mostly by people who need […]
