20 Years Fado Museum | Video Mapping | Free admission

Revisiting the most remarkable moments in the history of Fado, illustrated with some of the most emblematic pieces of the Museum's collection, this 12-minute show was conceived through a partnership between EGEAC | MUSEU DO FADO and the Ocubo studio, with the participation of Carlos do Carmo, Mariza, Camané and José Manuel Neto, who recorded audiovisual records to mark this double anniversary: ​​20 years of activity of the Fado Museum (1998-2018) and 7 years of Fado registration in the Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (UNESCO, November 27, 2011). The Fado Museum thanks the collaboration of the Amália Rodrigues Foundation.
