Live Entertainment Venues

Lisbon, Lisbon

Altice Arena is Portugal's largest indoor entertainment venue — a 20,000-capacity arena in the Parque das Nações district (built for Expo 98) that hosts major international concert tours, sporting events, and the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 for Portugal's capital city. Lisbon's extraordinary renaissance as one of Europe's most visited and most hyped cities — driven by its golden-age architecture, emerging tech scene, year-round sunshine, and affordable luxury — has created a concert market growing rapidly toward parity with much larger European cities.

Porto, Porto

Casa da Música is one of the finest concert halls in the world — a 1,238-seat Rem Koolhaas-designed masterpiece of white concrete in Porto's Rotunda da Boavista that has been hailed since opening in 2005 as one of the most acoustically and architecturally perfect concert halls ever built. Home to the Orquestra Sinfónica do Porto and programming classical, contemporary, jazz, and world music, Casa da Música is the reason Porto has established itself as one of Europe's most culturally ambitious mid-size cities.
