Celebrate the lusophone culture
The CPLP Summer Breeze Festival is back for its third edition on Saturday, 19th July 2025 at The Lighthouse Venue in Salford, Greater Manchester!

Join us and enjoy live performances from Lusophone artists, hands-on workshops, and traditional food from CPLP countries and beyond.
