All roads led to Mértola on 5 October, for a program with a participatory project through the streets of the village; and with a show that included the performances by the Grupo Coral da Mina de São Domingos and the Grupo Os Caldeireiros de São João, followed by the musical dialogue between Tânia Carvalho and Rocío Guzmán.

Between the Constellation and Cantexto, two performances by Joana Craveiro’s Teatro do Vestido; Filipa Francisco's participatory project and an unprecedented parade with rattles and drums: the festival 2024 opened in Serpa!
