Fiesa is a sand sculpture festival held annually in the Algarve, carved every year with a unique theme in mind. It is one of the largest sand sculpture exhibitions in the world due to the amount of sand it uses. It also represents a milestone in the career of the sculptors involved in it’s construction.

The festival is open during the day but also at night, where the sculptures are illuminated by colourful lights, creating new and unexpected environments.

There are also plenty of things to do and see. Adults and young children alike can experience and show off their creative abilities.

This year Fiesa Festival is open to the public everyday from 25th May to 25th October.

Between 25th May and 27th June opening hours are from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m.
Between 28th June and 15th September opening hours are from 10 a.m. until midnight.
Between 16th September and 25th October opening hours are from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m.
