SAINT JOHN'S DAY THE BIGGEST SUMMER FESTIVAL IN PORTO PORTUGAL WITH FIREWORKS DISPLAY
Hi everyone, welcome to Travelzilla, in this vlog I take you with me to the BIGGEST SUMMER PARTY in Portugal, ST. JOHN'S DAY or DIA DE SÃO JOÃO in Portuguese. This is one of the biggest festivities in the country during the summer months. It is also a massive party in countries like Brazil, but the origin of it is here in Portugal. SAO JOAO used to be a celebration to the summer solstice, or the shortest night of the year. A Celebration to the SUN GOD. Later on the catholic church incorporated this once pagan festivity into it's culture and elected Saint John the Baptist as the patron of the celebrations which happens in the incredibly busy Portuguese summer. The summer festival is crowded with artistic performances, parties, djs, Portuguese artists & people from all over Portugal and the world.
Here I take you to the streets of the city of PORTO PORTUGAL, show you what the summer festival look like, explain about the history behind it and show you some pretty awesome images of ST. JOHN'S DAY, the biggest summer festival in Portugal, one of the country's most important festivities.
I also talk about places to stay and start the video at the incredible CAFE MAJESTIC, one of the local inspirations of J.K. ROWLING to write the incredible series of HARRY POTTER. I also show you the craze of the local plastic hammers, porto wine, grilled sardines, places to stay in Porto Portugal, singing crowds and more! oporto fc porto porto 4k

Hello Pedro how are you? Thanks man, I love Porto I need to make a supervlog of Porto asap. I will get it done in the spring. I love Porto, I lot of people from my mum and dads family came from Porto, Braga, Santa Maria da Feira and Aveiro and all migrated to Brazil. I love Portugal and Bernardino is one of my heroes, his life is amazing I should write a book about him! :-) He sailed to Brazil when he was 16 and had a fleet of boats there. (galeões Patachos and Steam ships). He used to sail from Rio to Montevideo a lot for he had contracts with the Royal Mail. Then he got involved with the commerce of rice in that part of the world. Married a "portuguesa do Brasil" who descended from Portuguese navigators such as António Leme and João Gonçalves Zarco and was the only woman to run rice mills in the southern coast of Brazil. In the Rio world food fair he won "best rice in the world" then represented Brazil in the Philadelfia food fair in the 1870s lol his life is like a movie, seriously. He is one of my biggest inspirations in life, his house still stands in Brazil. He had Portuguese tiles brought from Porto to decorate his son's house. :-)

Hey man Great video, I was in Porto in late May this year and I did not know about this festival but I’m planning to go there next year. Quick question, is my understanding that the festival last two days (23&24), are both days the same ? Like fireworks and everything else the same? Please let me know your comments! Cheers
@TRAVELZILLA

Hey there, how are you? Thanks for writing to me. Fireworks should happen on Saint Johns day, but it always good to check because it can change. The fireworks should happn always on the night of the 23rd of June, which is Saint John's eve. Both days aren´t the same. The 23rd is usually where most of the party happens. Thank for reaching out, please subscribe! I always post the same video in 2 different versions, English and Portuguese. cheers

Hey man, it is pretty obvious it wasn't this year! There was no party this year for obvious reasons. The video isn´t about an specific date, but about what the party is like and where it comes from, so the year isn´t important at all, just the party itself. Thanks for writing though. Cheers!
