Fado Experience in Porto

Do something cultural on your stag do in Porto by booking a Fado experience to witness one of Portugal’s greatest performances with your own eyes.

Fado isn't just any old dance; it's a combination of music and poetry that hails from Lisbon and is performed all over the country. Wherever you go in Porto, you'll witness this incredible music played out in all sorts of ways. But some places stand out more than others, and we're taking you to one of the best in the city with this package, which includes tickets to a live, authentic show featuring some of the finest artists.

What to Expect

The show will take place at a central location in Porto that's easily accessible on foot, depending on where your hotel is. On the night, you simply show up, provide your name and tickets, and you'll be allowed to enter, as our team will have already made a reservation for you.

All performances last a total of one hour, with various start times throughout the night, including 6 PM, 7:30 PM, and 9 PM. As a little special extra, if you book the first slot and want to chat with the fado band about their art, they open the venue at 5:30 PM for visitors to come in and ask questions. It's an incredible insight into this type of music.

Since this is Porto, it wouldn't be right to send you somewhere without a glass of port wine. So when you arrive at the venue, you'll be given a glass to enjoy with the performance - in true Porto fashion.

What You Should Know Before Booking This Activity
