Experience the soul of Portuguese culture with a live Fado show at Casa da Guitarra in Porto, a traditional music shop offering a unique setting and a tasting of Reserve Port wine.

Step into the Heart of Fado and Traditional Portuguese Guitars

Ideally located near the upper level of the Luís I Bridge and Porto Cathedral, Casa da Guitarra is a renowned cultural hub and music shop dedicated to the traditional Portuguese guitar. This venue provides the perfect setting to bring the powerful emotion of Fado to life.

The experience begins with a warm welcome, followed by an immersive journey into the soul of Portuguese culture as talented Fado singers, accompanied by the Portuguese guitar and Fado viola, take the stage. Here, Fado's rich and haunting sounds echo through the room, creating an unforgettable atmosphere.

During the performance, enjoy a glass of Reserve Port Wine, produced by a Portuguese family-owned winery. The combination of soulful music and authentic local flavors offers a true taste of Portugal’s cultural heritage.

This Fado concert not only showcases the deeply emotional tradition of Portuguese music but also honors the Portuguese guitar as a symbol of national identity. Discover why Fado, born in the working-class neighborhoods of Lisbon and Porto, is considered the soulful voice of the Portuguese people.
