June is one of the most vibrant months in Lisbon! The city comes alive with colorful decorations, street music, dancing, delicious grilled sardines, and thousands of people celebrating the famous Santo António festivities.
A few tips if you're visiting Lisbon during this season:
🔹 Wear comfortable shoes – You'll be walking a lot through Lisbon's charming but hilly streets.
🔹 Arrive early for popular events – The city gets extremely crowded, especially around Alfama, Graça, Mouraria, and Avenida da Liberdade.
🔹 Carry some cash – Many street food stalls and local vendors still prefer cash payments.
🔹 Try the grilled sardines – It's the signature food of the season and an important part of Lisbon's culture.
🔹 Use public transport when possible – Parking becomes difficult and many roads are temporarily closed for celebrations.
🔹 Keep a light jacket – Even though it's summer, Lisbon evenings can be surprisingly cool, especially near the river.
