Summer is always better when enjoyed together. ☀️🎶 Next Saturday, after Mário Neves’s performance, the party continues and Rollercoaster takes the stage to turn the festival into a true musical roller coaster. It’s one of those rides where age doesn’t matter. All you want to do is smile, sing, and do a little dance. From grandchildren to parents, from parents to grandparents, everyone has a place on this dance floor. With the typical July heat, the snacks, the long conversations among friends and neighbors, and the spirit of togetherness that makes these festivals such a cherished tradition of ours, I promise to do what I love most: create moments where every song finds the right person. Because a festival isn’t measured just by the volume of the music… it’s measured by the smiles, the hugs, and the memories we take home. Fasten your seatbelts… the Rollercoaster is about to take off! 🎢 See you at the Festival do Petisco in Vila Nova de Santo André. No rush. no time published!
