🔥 FEEL THE FIRE. LIVE THE LEGEND.
Forget everything you think you know about Friday the 13th.
In Montalegre, the unluckiest day of the calendar becomes one of Portugal’s most extraordinary nights.
For one night, this medieval town in the mountains of Barroso is transformed. The castle glows over thousands of visitors, witches and demons take over the streets, fire lights up the darkness and centuries-old legends, superstition and local traditions come alive.
At the heart of Montalegre’s Friday the 13th tradition is one of its most iconic rituals: the Queimada and the Esconjuro.
A traditional aguardente-based drink is set alight while the famous incantation is recited — a ritual filled with fire, mysticism and symbolism, traditionally associated with driving away evil spirits, curses and the evil eye.
And that’s only part of it.
Expect a whole town living the theme: street entertainment, witches, demons, music, performances around the historic centre, the medieval castle as a backdrop and an atmosphere unlike any other.
This isn’t Halloween.
This is Montalegre on Friday the 13th.
