December 2014 Events in Algarve
Has this become a habit? We have already established a good tradition, so with jingle bells almost audible in the air, today we are going to talk about the greatest December 2014 Events in Algarve.
Despite the cold and the short days, we can’t help but love December. In the entire Christian world, this is an eventful month, the month of Christmas, the month of presents, the first month of winter, with snow and dreams, the last month of the years, with plans and hopes for the future.
Portugal has its own way of celebrating with a most eventful and colorful December. Some say Christmas “at the seaside” can be strange, because we all correlate it with fun in the sun and summer water sports. But as it happens, the winter celebrations can be feasted everywhere, and the Algarve dresses in neon lights and decorates Christmas trees. And what about the highlight events?Let’s take a look:
The Portuguese are proud of their national arts and crafts, and this is exactly what is celebrated at the Loule Mountain Fair. The fair is the place where you can buy beautiful handmade presents to put under the tree. Food, natural products and diversity of cultures are the ingredients of this event.
Albufeira organizes a “Christmas Grand Prix”, a run of 9 km followed by a 3 km walk for “Father Christmas”.
On December 6th (Saint Nicholas’ Day), Aljezur celebrates the coming of winter with a Christmas Fair similar to the one in Loule. And in Sao Bras de Alportel, people will gather to celebrate with “Music for the Season”.
These are just a few of great December 2014 Events in Algarve. So what next? Next, you book plane tickets and airport transfers to Portugal and travel to this happy country to join in the celebration!
