Launched in 2010, Martinhal has become a beacon of elegance, creativity, and community, committed from the very start to elevating Portuguese artists and artisans. Over the years, it has showcased the work of talented local artists such as Kruella D’Enfer, Graça Paz, Pedro Batista, Vasco Águas, Oficina Marques and Tamara Alves, among many others.
The 2025 celebration promises a rich program of art presentations, workshops, and brand presentations, all against the stunning backdrop of the Algarve coast. The event will include a retrospective of 15 remarkable artists who have created works for the past 12 editions of this special weekend at Martinhal Sagres, as well as for other Martinhal Resorts, over the last 15 years. We’ll also be joined by long-time partners and exciting new brands, coming together to create an inspiring weekend of art, design, and wellbeing. Claus Porto will once again join us as long-term partner, and L’Unperfect – the new Portuguese perfume company launched in 2024 – is among the exciting newcomers. Other confirmed participants include Carolina Curado Jewelry, Oriza Lab (skincare), Seda & Companhia, presenting Castelo Branco Embroidery, Benedita Formosinho and Mama Praïa.
Culinary artistry will also take center stage, with Executive Chef Micael Valentim—who has grown alongside Martinhal—curating exclusive dining experiences at the resort’s signature restaurants with cocktails and drinks workshops powered by Exceptional Spirits. The main celebratory cocktail and dinner on November 15th will be followed by an unforgettable celebration at M Bar.
This special weekend captures the very essence of Martinhal on its 15th anniversary: a celebration of creativity, community, and the timeless beauty of Portuguese culture.
