Come and experience musicians and artists from across the world […]
The hippest market in town is still going strong! Regueirão dos Anjos, formerly known as Anjos70 Art & Fleamarket, takes place on the first and third weekend of every month, offering two floors of shopping with an emphasis on small-brand fashion, second-hand and vintage clothes and accessories, and artisanal products of all sorts, plus food stalls, […]
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 […]
Teatro São Luiz is putting on Philip Glass' In The Penal Colony, an opera based on the Franz Kafka short story of the same name, in English (the opera, not Kafka's story, naturally), with Portuguese subtitles. We always thought that Glass and Kafka were a truly jolly combination. Throw in the excellent venue and the […]

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.

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 […]

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, […]
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 […]
