One of the best times to visit Portugal is during Santos Populares<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Santos Populares (or the Popular Saints Festival) is a nationwide cultural celebration held in June. Honoring the Catholic patron saints, the city takes to the streets, lining them with\u00a0paper garlands and colored lanterns, celebrating the tradition with music, dancing\u00a0and tons and tons of eating and drinking. We happen to know a little something about this open-air street fest, as Lisbon’s Time Out Market<\/a>\u00a0is known about town for its Santo Ant\u00f3nio and S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o parties.\u00a0But if swinging a last-minute trip to Lisbon\u2014one of the world’s best food cities<\/a>\u2014just isn\u2019t in the cards,\u00a0don\u2019t sweat: the lively festival is coming to Brooklyn. <\/p>\n

Join the festivities of Santos Populares at Time Out Market New York, Dumbo<\/a>, where\u00a0Portugal House<\/a>\u00a0puts on an immersive cultural takeover to celebrate the\u00a02026 FIFA World Cup<\/a>. Beyond streaming exciting watch parties for every soccer game, Portugal House\u00a0brings the country’s energy to Brooklyn through music, food and wine showcases, and cultural activations, including the Santos Populares celebration.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Throughout the month, our fifth-floor outdoor terrace will channel the energy of Santos Populares, turning it into a Portuguese arraial, aka street fare. Expect a selection of Portuguese tapas\u2014including grilled sardines, the fest’s official dish\u2014summer cocktails and wine,\u00a0and colorful d\u00e9cor inspired by Lisbon and Porto. <\/p>\n

You’ll have three chances to get in on the celebrations, each corresponding to a saint: Saint Anthony (June 13), Saint John (June 24), and Saint Peter (June 29th).
