Madeira Wine Festival
August 24th to 14th september
The Wine Festival relives the time-honoured traditions of the Madeiran population surrounding the production of this exquisite wine.
In the centre of Funchal there are light, sound and folk shows connected to traditional wine-making.
In Câmara de Lobos the festival begins with the live grape harvest. The picking of the grapes, the pickers' parade, treading the grapes and the whole ritual of a typical Madeira folk celebration are enjoyed by all.
