Loulé White Night | Noite Branca is a biennial event. We look forward to the next festival in August 2025.
It’s difficult to say goodbye to Summer in the Algarve. But Loulé White Night | Noite Branca makes it a little easier. This “end of summer” über-party turns the entire central business district of Loulé into one giant chill-out lounge. In 2023, don’t miss this ritual of entertainment, food, dancing and celebration beginning at 8:10pm on Saturday, 26 August. Dress code (of course) is strictly white.
With over 125,000 sqm, from the old market, to the castle, throughout the old town and beyond, white couches are set in streets and white decorations adorn storefronts. Street performers mingle with and entertain the crowd. Stages are set up in strategic locations for a variety of music, from bands to DJs, intended to chill spectators on the warm evening night.
