what’s on
The next seven days in Lisbon.
A short, hand-kept list — not a full calendar. We don’t try to list every gig and pop-up; we list the ones worth rearranging your week for. Updated daily.
A quieter week in Lisbon.
Nothing on our editor’s shortlist for the next seven days — we list events the way we list walks, with one ear to the ground rather than a firehose. We’ll be back with picks soon. Meanwhile, the city is still walkable: here are four routes that read well any day of the week.

Four walks for an empty week.
Águas Livres: the great aqueduct and the water cistern
Thirty-five arches across a valley, and the cathedral-like cistern they fed.
Ajuda: the unfinished palace and the oldest garden
A royal palace that was never finished, Portugal's oldest botanical garden, and the quiet way down to Belém.
Alameda: the monumental city and the great fountain
The 1940s stepped fountain, the Estado Novo campus, and the tiled metro stations beneath.
Alcântara to Belém: the river's edge
The Tejo-side promenade west, under the bridge, past the docks, to the MAAT's white wave.
