Itinerary

Fado is a traditional Portuguese music genre, defined by its grievous and sad lyrics, often infused with feelings of melancholy and longing. Not only has it been added to the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists, it’s also an essential part of Portuguese culture. 

This show gives you the opportunity to experience an intimate acoustic concert at “Casa da Guitarra”, a famous venue in Porto recognized by its musical excellence, always showcasing the best guitarists and local fado performers

This iconic venue also features a typical Portuguese instrument shop, where all items are built locally. You will find various traditional Portuguese string instruments such as the viola Braguesa or the viola Campaniça.

You will be moved by the intensity of a female leading singer, beautifully accompanied by a Portuguese guitar player, all within a very intimate setting. 

A reserve port wine will be served during the interlude so you can immerse and feel the essence of Portuguese culture and traditions. Don’t miss it!

Wonderful
Lovely to listen to the musicians and singers perform Fado music. Thank you from Canada.

Great fun & excellent musicians & singers
It was the first time I’ve heard Fado singing and I loved it. The two singers were also very charismatic with their audience and got us joining in for two songs. They were fun to talk to afterwards as well.

Nice experience
Excellent way to appreciate fado - not too long not too short

Absolutely jaw-dropping
This was definitely one of my highlights in Porto. I was looking for a fado show with no dinner and this turned out to be stellar. Claudia and the guitarists knocked it out of the park. They played and sang the most popular fado songs and took the audience through a journey for an hour. People laughed and clapped with some songs. In the middle of the show they take a break and the audience is given a glass of really good Porto. Claudia is wonderful singer and she interacts with audience at all times which makes the show even more amusing. I would go back for sure.

It was truly fantastic!
Perfect for someone like myself who’s never seen fado and wants to experience it more as a concert - without the full dinner, etc. the venue was delightful, with great acoustics, and the talent was unequalled! They really seem to enjoy themselves. Even my wife who didn’t think she would love it-really did.
