The history of music in Portugal would not be the same without the Paredes de Coura Festival. Throughout its 26 years of existence, the oldest and most charismatic Portuguese festival has made history in the discovery of new musical promises and in the presentation of the most renowned names in music worldwide. With a careful and coherent program, always faithful to the alternative spirit that characterizes it, the Paredes de Coura Festival, which takes place next to the river beach of Taboão, has already been considered one of the 5 best music festivals in Europe by Rolling Stone magazine. Arcade Fire, Pixies, Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, Coldplay and Morrisey, are just some of the names that have already stepped on the stage of this festival.
