São João da Pesqueira is set to host its annual Saint John Festival from June 22 to 24, promising a vibrant celebration of local culture and traditions. The festivities will kick off with traditional folk marches, as local groups in colorful costumes parade through Praça do Marquês to the lively sounds of traditional music.

Over the course of two days, the festival will feature a rich program of events. Musicians and DJs will keep the energy high with live performances and infectious rhythms. A highlight of the festival will be the "tasquinhas" of Saint John, where visitors can indulge in traditional dishes such as grilled sardines and a variety of other local delicacies.

The festival is a convergence of traditions, music, dance, and gastronomy, aimed at preserving and celebrating the cultural heritage of São João da Pesqueira. This vibrant event not only keeps local customs alive but also makes the town an attractive destination for visitors.

In addition to the musical performances and culinary delights, the festival will offer entertainment for all age groups. Families can enjoy games and workshops, while adults can participate in dance workshops and local wine tastings.

To ensure the safety of all attendees, organizers have implemented security measures in coordination with local authorities to manage crowds and provide medical assistance.
