If you love air shows, acrobatics, drones, music and unique experiences, you can’t miss Air Invictus.

On June 20 and 21, the skies over Porto and Gaia become a stage, with aircraft cutting across the horizon above the Douro River.

Do you remember the song by Os Azeitonas, sung by Miguel Araújo?

Come with me to watch the planes
Taking off
Tearing through the clouds
Tearing through the sky

This June, it will feel just like that.

A new restaurant in Gaia, proud of its northern roots and Mediterranean soul.

Facing the Douro and with traditional rabelo boats on the horizon, Italian and Mediterranean cuisine take centre stage.

Imagine tasting a board of Portuguese and Italian cheeses or cured meats while watching the planes cross the sky.

Reserve a table at the Rabelo Restaurante & Pizzaria.
Because the best of life happens at the table and continues on the terrace.
