TRANSPORTATION

How do I get to Sines and move around?
Please check the page Arrive and move around in Sines’ City Council website.

Are the stages far from each other?
The stages in Sines’ town (Castle, Centro de Artes and Beach Stage) are less than a 5m walk from each other. Porto Covo, the village where the first 9 concerts take places, is 13km south of Sines. A car is recommended to travel between Sines and Porto Covo, since the buses, although timely, are not very frequent.
