The Handsome Festival invites you to discover the Algarve beyond its beaches. A region of living traditions, ancestral knowledge, and communities that preserve the true spirit of this land.

Far from mass tourism, this is your opportunity to immerse yourself in an authentic Algarve — from Barlavento to Sotavento — through experiences that only those who know the region intimately can offer.

Creative workshops, food and wine tastings, historical tours led by local guides, and encounters with the communities that shape this culture: the second edition of the Algarve International Cultural and Creative Tourism Festival takes place from 24 to 28 June 2026 across the region.

Come and learn, taste, explore, and connect. A truly remarkable Algarve awaits you.
