The Orquestra de Bandolins da Casa do Povo da Camacha is an ensemble from Camacha, in the municipality of Santa Cruz (Madeira). The tradition of mandolins in the area dates back to around 1924, when teacher Jorge Santos founded the first mandolin tuna in Camacha.
The current line-up was formed in January 2006, on the initiative of José João de Jesus Ferreira.
