23rd Open Day Festival

Get ready for the countdown! Saturday, October 10th, the doors of Nirvana Studios will swing open at 4 PM to celebrate the 23rd edition of the Open Day Festival. Located in Barcarena, this free-entry event continues to be the epicenter of cultural synergies, arts, and alternative lifestyle, preserving that vintage 'on the road' DNA that has made it unique since the first kilometer of this journey. What began as an intimate celebration of the Custom Circus troupe's anniversary—back when their life was purely nomadic—quickly transformed into an annual phenomenon. Today, Open Day is much more than a party: it's an emblematic gathering that unites different generations and officially marks the return of the annual cycle of Nirvana Studios, the leading Alternative Cultural Center in the municipality of Oeiras. The program maintains its multidisciplinary essence, merging resident projects with external guests, both national and international, who share the festival's vibrant identity. In this edition, the commitment is renewed: to keep alive the spirit of cooperation, proactivity, and boundless creativity — the fundamental pillars that have underpinned the mission of this space since its founding.
