About 90,000 people attended the three days of the Meo Marés Vivas festival in Vila Nova de Gaia. The event, which was “two months sold out,” recalls Jorge Lopez of the organization, began on Friday with Bryan Adams as the headliner (the highlight being the Jameses’ massive concert) and ended this Sunday with the queen of funk, Anitta. . “It was a very positive release with an audience that knew how to get the best experience from big shows.” According to this official, “The event is returning this year with dates already set for July 14, 15 and 16.”
Returning to earth, after two years not taken place due to the pandemic, Marés Vivas, which was installed in a new location in the old Madalena campsite (in an area five times larger than the old Seca do Bacalhau), had almost 40 domestic and foreign artists. This Sunday, the focus is on Anitta and Jessie X, as well as Diogo Pizarra and two outstanding Portuguese women, Maro, the winner of the last Song Festival, and one of the new fado vocalists, Beatriz Rosario, who, together with the goal of modernizing the Lisbon song and who had the courage imagine yourself in a very unconventional image for a fado singer.
