Torre de Moncorvo Annual Fair – May 2026
The traditional Annual Fair of Torre de Moncorvo returns on 10 May 2026, bringing together local producers, artisans and traders in the heart of the village. A must-see event to discover the flavours and traditions of northeastern Trás-os-Montes.
The Annual Fair of Torre de Moncorvo is one of the most deeply rooted traditions in this municipality in northeastern Portugal. Confirmed for 10 May 2026, this fair brings together hundreds of exhibitors and visitors in a lively, genuinely Transmontano atmosphere in the historic heart of the town.
Throughout the day, visitors can browse stalls brimming with regional products, with highlights including Torre de Moncorvo's famous almonds — celebrated across Portugal — alongside olive oils, cured meats, cheeses, honey and other local produce. The fair is also a unique opportunity to purchase traditional crafts, from earthenware pottery to embroidery and woodwork, reflecting the centuries-old craftsmanship of the region's people.
Cultural and entertainment highlights are also part of the day: folk dancing groups, traditional music and street entertainment create a festive atmosphere that invites discovery and socialising. Families, tourists and locals mingle at an event that celebrates the identity and produce of the land.
Torre de Moncorvo, the municipal seat of Bragança district, is renowned for its historical beauty and the economic importance of almond cultivation. The Annual Fair is part of a calendar of municipal fairs that punctuates the year — with editions in August, September and December — keeping a tradition alive that stretches back centuries.
Admission is free and the event runs throughout the day, making it accessible to all who wish to immerse themselves in the authenticity of northeastern Trás-os-Montes.
