Jazz on the island
The first week of July in Madeira is entirely devoted to jazz. It is here that the largest festival in Funchal, the main city of the island, takes place. Every year, an increasing number of performers and jazz fans visit this cozy place, delighting with red tile roofs and performances of the world's most famous musicians..
Invites Machiko
Having found a cozy spot in Madeira, this small Portuguese town does not want to keep up with the local leaders of the tourism business. Therefore, a large culinary festival is held on the border of July and August. The festivities are centered on all kinds of tastings of traditional food and drinks. But the celebrations are not limited to this, the program includes many other significant cultural, musical and even sporting events..
