A Summer Festival filled with fun, foam, fabulous food and funky music!

A Summer Festival filled with fun, foam, fabulous food and funky music!On the 13th August, under a brilliant azure sky and a sizzling golden sun, Boavista hosted its first Summer Festival which was enjoyed by local residents and guests holidaying on the resort. The event got under way with a refreshing welcome drink, aptly named ‘summer lovers’, provided by the José Repolho winery.

To compensate for the soaring afternoon temperatures, guests were able to chill out in inflatable pools of water or frolic amidst clouds of silky foam. For the more energetic, games of aqua football were organised while the dance floor came alive with ‘Zumba’ led by Ana Leal and Saúl Maurício. The rhythmic reggae sounds of Jahlita Friends enticed people to boogie the afternoon away in a convivial atmosphere.

Appetites were amply satiated with generous servings from a traditional Portuguese hog roast, a chicken and seafood paella or delicious meats from the barbecue. Liquid sustenance was provided by several beverage outlets but one of the most popular proved to be the gin bar.

As dusk fell, DJ Just and DJ Soulbeat upped the tempo playing ‘house’ and dance music before African pop singer, Tito Monteiro, took the stage and enchanted the audience with his own style of slow and rhythmically romantic ‘Kizomba’ music.

It is true to report that the event was a great success as has been borne out by the numerous complements received and comments posted on social media. Let’s hope Boavista Resort will consider repeating the celebration next summer with another festival full of fun.
