The Sol da Caparica festival kicks off today with four days of Lusophone music on four stages spread across the Costa da Caparica Urban Park, in the municipality of Almada.
Calema, Rui Veloso, Xutos & Pontapés, T-Rex, HMB and Capicua are some of the artists performing at the 9th edition of Sol da Caparica.
The event had been organized since 2019 by the Chiado Group, which also entered the competition, but from this year until 2026 it will be developed by the companies Domingo no Mundo and Music Mov, headed by André Sardet and António Gomes, together with Almada Town Hall.
This year’s line-up will also include names such as L7NNON, Diego Miranda, Os Quatro e Meia, INSERT COIN, Badoxa, Danni Gato, MC Livinho, Mizzy Miles, Nelson Freitas and Rich & Mendes, Padre Guilherme, MC Ryan SP, Cláudia Pascoal, Linda Martini, Bateu Matou, Karetus, IRMA, King Bigs, Bianca Barros, Rony Fuego, Maninho, GANSO, Celeste Mariposa, Fogo Fogo, Porbatuka, NAPA, Mura and Stereossauro, Luana do Bem, M.A.C. (Missão A Cumprir), Bué Tolo, José Pinhal Post-Mortem Experience, Gilsons, Magano, I LOVE BAILE FUNK and TNT.
At the presentation of the event in April, André Sardet explained that he intends to include more artists, environmental associations, associations that support disabled citizens and economic agents from the municipality of Almada in the structure and design of the festival.
“We want it to be the dream of four summer nights for everyone,” he said.
This year’s event has four stages: the Sea Stage, the Earth Stage, the Amphitheatre Stage and, for the first time, the Almada Stage, as a way of giving prestige not only to culture and artists, but also to the residents of the Almada region.
Tickets for O Sol da Caparica cost 28 euros per day or 78.5 euros for a four-day pass.
As usual since its first edition, residents of the municipality of Almada have a special price.
August 18th is dedicated to children, with a program that starts at 10:00, for a special price of three euros. The venue closes at 2pm and reopens at 4pm for the continuation of the festival, with programming on all four stages.
There is also a four-day family pass (for two children and two adults, exclusively for Almada residents) for 150 euros.
