history

The Festivities in Honour of Our Lady das Pazes and Saint George took place from 9 to 13 April 2026 in Vila Verde de Ficalho, in the municipality of Serpa, each day with its own motto, from 'You are the most beautiful saint' to 'Closing day'. They opened with a gathering at the Chapel of Our Lady das Pazes, the Eucharist with the blessing of the new banner, and the procession to the parish church. There was a reception of invited standards with the philharmonic bands of Serpa and Safara, the parade of choral groups, the procession of Saint George on Saturday, that of Our Lady das Pazes on Sunday, and a bullock play on Monday. In the evenings, performances were given by Grupo Peekaboo, La Cuarta Cuerda, Banda Índice, The Gift, After Floyd (a Pink Floyd tribute), UHF, the Marco Paulo tribute 'Obrigado Marco', De Moda em Moda, and Mário Pica, among others.
