In Melgaço, the most thrilling Christmas adventure is about to unfold as Father Christmas prepares for another daring rafting journey down the River Minho. This initiative is a highlight on the municipality’s Christmas agenda, featuring a range of activities from December 2nd to January 12th, including an exhibition, musical performances, a theatre show, cinema sessions, workshops, sports, and street entertainment.

Furthermore, Melgaço is actively promoting and celebrating local commerce with the campaign “Buy local! Buy what’s ours.” This initiative encourages individuals to complete their Christmas shopping in traditional local shops, supporting and enriching the community during this festive time.
