This archipelago, with its unusual natural environment, is famous for its constant spring-like climate and the richness and beauty of its landscape. As well as being the perfect place for enjoying moments of rest and relaxation, it is also a destination that is full of exciting activities.

All year round, there are things to do, from the cultural to the sporting, to the historical and the gastronomic. These events are enthusiastically supported by the local population and are also designed to make your holiday even more unforgettable.

Besides visiting some of our museums and historic monuments, or engaging in some of your favourite sports, you also have the chance to enjoy the Flower Festival, to be enthralled by the magical atmosphere of the Atlantic Festival, to dance at carnival time, and to relive the history of the great period of maritime discovery at the Columbus Festival.

And if all that sounds too active for you, just sample some Madeira wine at the traditional Wine Festival.

Finally, at the end of the year, the festival spirit reaches its peak with Madeira’s most famous event, the New Year celebrations. Come and experience Madeira!
