🎉 Join the little ones and come and enjoy Carnival!

The traditional Carnival parades will be enlivened by almost two thousand children, preschool and elementary school students from the municipality's school groups, as well as private institutions and social welfare institutions, who will leave the classroom to color the streets of all the parishes.

The 2026 Schools Carnival – Folia na Rua will be on the streets of Abela, Alvalade, Cercal do Alentejo, Ermidas-Sado, São Bartolomeu da Serra, São Domingos, Santiago do Cacém, Vale de Água, and Vila Nova de Santo André.

📍 In case of adverse weather conditions at the time of the outdoor parades, they will be held in schools, with the exception of Santiago do Cacém, which will be held in the Municipal Sports Pavilion.

    Theater – Nights at the Square – The Broken Jug

    Throughout the month of August, the “Noites no Largo” initiative presents the play “A Bilha Quebrada,” performed by Baal17—the Baixo Alentejo Educational Theater Company—which will tour various locations in the municipality between August 13 and 30 at 9:30 p.m., in Alvalade, Costa de Santo André, Cercal do Alentejo, Vale de Água, Cruz de João Mendes, Abela, Santiago do Cacém, Ermidas-Sado, Santa Cruz, Vila Nova de Santo André, São Domingos, and São Bartolomeu da Serra. The Santiago do Cacém City Council, with the support of the parish councils, aims through this touring initiative to provide the public with free street theater performances, as part of a clear commitment to cultural decentralization. Musical procession through the streets of each town – 9:00 p.m. | Start of the show – 9:30 p.m. In a village court, Dona Marta demands justice: someone broke into her daughter Eva’s room during the night and smashed her favorite jug. Adão, the authoritarian and corrupt judge, prepares to settle the case for his own benefit, but as luck would have it, on that very day he receives a visit from an inspector from the city. Eva refuses to tell the truth, and suspicion falls on her fiancé. For Dona Brígida, who never misses a thing, the Devil is involved in the matter. After all, who broke Dona Marta’s jug? Text: h.v.
