Calema to bid farewell to 2026 in Albufeira

The night of December 31 will feature Calema as one of the main attractions. The duo will take the stage at Praia dos Pescadores in a celebration that begins at 10:00 PM and builds up to the countdown to 2027.

After welcoming the new year, the music continues with DJ Nox, extending the party into the early hours of the morning.

Over 1200 drones will light up Albufeira

One of the major highlights of Carpe Nox 2027 will be in the sky. The organizers are preparing a show with more than 1200 drones, integrated with various visual and pyrotechnic moments.

Instead of a simple light formation, the drones will be used to develop a visual narrative about Albufeira. A choreography featuring 200 pyrotechnic drones has also been announced, presented as a first for Portugal.

Carolina Deslandes at the first sunset of 2027

The party doesn't end in the early hours. On January 1, 2027, Praia dos Pescadores will once again host music to celebrate the first sunset of the year.

This time, Carolina Deslandes will be the star, extending the Carpe Nox program into the first day of 2027.

Where does the Albufeira New Year's Eve take place?

The center of the celebrations will once again be Praia dos Pescadores, next to Albufeira's historic center.

The setting allows for a combination of stage, beach, ocean, and aerial show in a single space, which has helped turn Carpe Nox into one of the largest New Year's events in the Algarve.

Do I need to buy a ticket?

There is no admission fee planned for the main event. Carpe Nox traditionally offers free access at Praia dos Pescadores.

Given the usual high turnout, those planning to spend the night in Albufeira should book accommodation, parking, and travel in advance.

Where to spend New Year's Eve in the Algarve?

For those looking for a large-scale celebration, Albufeira will once again be one of the top choices in the Algarve to ring in 2027.

The combination of a concert, drones, pyrotechnics, the beach, and the following day's program allows the New Year's Eve experience to be spread across several moments, rather than concentrating everything solely at midnight.

An Algarve that remains vibrant in winter

New Year's Eve is also an opportunity to discover the Algarve outside the beach season. Albufeira keeps its restaurants, accommodation, shops, and entertainment open, while other areas of the region offer gastronomy, nature, markets, historic villages, and winter experiences.

If you are thinking of welcoming 2027 in the Algarve, Albufeira already has a night prepared to be remembered.

The program may still be subject to updates or changes until December. Please check official information before traveling.
