Douro Alive Festival 2026 — Peso da Régua

Douro Alive 2026 returns to Peso da Régua from 9 to 12 July, offering four days of live music against the breathtaking backdrop of the Douro Valley. One of Portugal's most unique festivals, Douro Alive combines music, gastronomy and the singular charm of the world's oldest wine region.

The festival grounds, located in the riverside Parque de Merendas next to the Douro River, offer panoramic views over the terraced vineyards and rolling hills. The spectacle isn't limited to the stage — the surrounding landscape itself is part of the experience.

The lineup spans multiple genres from national and international pop and rock to traditional Portuguese music. A dedicated gastronomic area showcases regional Douro products, with Port wine and Douro wine tastings.

Where to Stay

Stay at a Douro hotel and enjoy the entire region. Quinta do Bosque Douro and Casa de Carrapatelo are two excellent luxury options near the festival.
