The Mayor of Porto Santo, Nuno Batista, was pleased this afternoon with the number of visitors that the golden island is receiving at this time, which is marked by the Festas de São João.
“Porto Santo is completely full, which is great for what we have prepared and for all those who work at São João. It’s a whole month of festivities where the population of Porto Santo spreads what is their culture above all else. Today comes the strongest day, the opening day of the food and drink stalls, and I think everything was done and the poster was well chosen”, said the mayor.
DAMA, one of the headline groups at the São João festivities, in Porto Santo, are already on the ‘Golden Island’ to prepare for the concert, scheduled tonight at 10:30 pm.
The São João program, Porto’s biggest summer festival, began last Friday, June 14th, with the promise of 10 days of entertainment, on three different stages in the center of Vila Baleira.
The highlight is the Popular Marches, on Sunday, June 23rd.
