The Porto Book Fair is returning to the Palácio de Cristal Gardens, between August 27th and September 12th, in an edition preceded by six music weekends
In a call for the presentation of the “Warm Up” initiative, the name attributed to the six week cycle of musical programming, the municipality advances that the preliminary event will take place between 16 and 22 August, anticipating and "warming up musically" the edition of 2021 of the Book Fair, whose news will be revealed on Friday, World Book Day. "WARM UP is the alternative proposed to open the Gardens of the Crystal Palace and, through words and music, host festivals and activities that could not be carried out in the current context", points out the council in the call. The event, he adds, "is an optimistic encouragement that the Municipality of Porto provides to cultural structures, artists and their audiences, giving them back space for activity and reinforcing their importance in the dynamics of the city".
