A Estrada Festival

Road Festival
Santiago do Cacém
2021 → 2022

A Estrada Festival proposes the experience of discovering the territory between the Village of São Francisco da Serra and the Coast of Santo André, in the Council of Santiago do Cacém, along the municipal road 544 and its ramifications, through a transdisciplinary and itinerant cultural program, structured in several stages integrated in the landscape and in the atmosphere of the places. Intertwined with daily life and the local economy, it highlights the singularities of the montado and coastal region, its local gastronomy, its people, traditions and culture.

 

A Estrada Festival crosses paths to qualify and revitalize the cultural offer of the coastal region of Santiago do Cacém. Through a program founded on the relationship between contemporary artistic propositions and the specificity of local culture and economy. A Estrada promotes crossings and readings of the territory in a sensitive confrontation between daily life spaces and other more unusual ones, with artistic proposals, carefully designed to those who live and visit the places on the road, including those who visit the region attracted by its sand beaches, qualifying the summer cultural offer and stimulating the discovery of a broader territory.

 

Festival A Estrada was awarded Best New National Festival at the Iberian Festival Awards 2021.
