Vais ter a oportunidade de assistir à nona edição do festival NOS Alive 2015!

NOS Alive is a music festival which takes place in the Passeio Marítimo de Algés, Oeiras, Lisbon. Despite its recent creation (the first edition was in 2007), this festival has already won several awards: in Portugal, 2014, Nos Alive won four awards in the categories voted by the public in Portugal Festival awards, including Best Urban Festival, Best Large Dimension Festival, Best Baths and Best Live Perfomance (Artic Monkeys, July 10. Tickets for this day sold out one month before the start of the festival).

O NOS Alive é um festival de musica que tem lugar no Passeio Marítimo de Algés, Oeiras, Lisboa.

How to get to NOS Alive?

The best way to get there is by subway and train. Get the subway to “Cais Sodré” station. At “Cais Sodré” get the train to “Algés”- all trains stop in “Algés” train station. The Algés station is a minute's walk from the entrance of the festival. During festival days, the train runs 24 hours a day and during night you can catch it every 30 minutes. Do not go by car because it is very difficult to park in here.

A melhor maneira para chegar ao Nos Alive é apanhar o metro e comboio. Apanha o metro até ao Cais do Sodré e depois apanha o comboio até Algés - todos os comboios param em Algés. Esta estação fica a um minuto da entrada do festival. Durante estes dias, o comboio funciona 24 horas por dia, e durante a noite tens sempre um a cada 30 minutos. Não vás de carro, é muito difícil estacionar nesta zona.

Festival Map and Prices

Here is a map of NOS Alive 2014, we believe that this year's is going to be very similiar. The festival has several restaurant areas and prices go from 4 to 8 euros per dish. The food is the same as in any other festival: burguers, sandwiches, pizza.. Fast food.

However, if you dont want to spend money on food, you can bring homemade sandwiches! The security team allows that, but you can't bring more elaborate food or drinks.

The beer, a glass of wine, water or juices cost 2 euros.

Aqui está o mapa do NOS Alive 2014, e acreditamos que este ano vai ser muito parecido. O festival tem diversas zonas de restauração, e os preços variam entre os 4 e 8 euros por prato. A comida aqui é igual a qualquer outro festival: hamburguers, sandes, pizzas..

Porém, se não quiseres gastar dinheiro em comida podes sempre trazer sandes feitas de casa. A segurança do festival permite a entrada de sandes, mas não podes trazer comidas mais elaboradas nem bebidas.

Uma cerveja, um copo de vinho, agua e sumos custam por volta dos 2 euros.

10 Reasons to visit Lisbon

1 - The Culture

Mosteiro dos Jerónimos - Belém

Lisbon is the second oldest capital in Europe, just after Athens, and it is one of the world's greatest historical cities. What truly makes the city unique is its history. Portuguese culture is based on a past that dates from prehistoric times to the eras of the Roman as Moorish invansions.

Some of the most important monuments, like Jeronimos Monastery, Belém Tower, or the St.George's Castle can be found in the old historical center of the city.

The city also maintain its traditions, like Fado and Lisbon's cultural events.

2 - Portuguese Hospitality 

The Portuguese people welcome diversity and love meeting new people. If you need any information or direction, just ask some local people and they will help you right away. The portuguese poeple are very hospitable and love to help everyone with a friendly smile.

                                            3- The Weather

The average price for a meal with starter, main course, dessert and wine is 15 euros per person, but you can find places that are cheaper.

5 - Lisbon Nightlife

Bairro Alto by night

At night there are several different clubs and bars to go dance or to have a drink. You can go to Bairro Alto or Rua Cor de Rosa (in Cais do Sodre) and have fun between the different streets that exist there. The street bars close at around two in the morning, and the prices ranged from one euro and 7 euros. A beer or a shot costs around one euro, white spirits like vodka or caipirinhas cost around 5 euros. The most expensive drinks are called "buckets":  a liter of white drink with juice for 7 euros.
The nightclubs in Lisbon usually have minimum mandatory consumption, between 6 and 20 euros. The drinks in the disco cost between 4 euros (a beer) and 8 euros (a white drink). The night in Lisbon starts late, and the clubs only begin to fill at around 2 am and close at 6am.

Lisbon is considered one of the cheapest cities in Europe - oficially Western Europe's least expensive capital.

7 - Beaches and Surf

Costa da Caparica

What about beaches? Well, in Lisbon you have two main coasts both about 20 mins away that are really beautiful and paradisiacal. If you cross the 25 de Abril bridge, you will find Costa da Caparica right away, with more than 10 extraordinary beaches along it with very clear water and clear sand. If you prefer to stay in the north side of the bridge you can just take the train and also go to very beautiful and clean beaches along Linha de Cascais.
