Trip to Lisbon, by rinz on Nov 2, 2022 9:51:03 GMT 1, Such a lovely city. I've lived there for half a year. It was actually in Lisbon i started my art interest - one of the reasons being all the amazing street art. You can't really go anywhere in the city and not see street art. So literally the whole city is great for watching it. Some of the highlights is the area Graca. There are the Shepard fairey pieces, tons of Vhills and lot of other great stuff. Enjoy your stay.
Underdogs Gallery is a small but nice area (if they have a artist on that you like) and the huge Museu Coleรงรฃo Berardo is worth a visit - they have art from the likes of Gerhard Richter and Basquiat.
And hey - eat a lot of Pastel De Natas!

Trip to Lisbon, by Pete the Post on Nov 2, 2022 12:25:23 GMT 1, If your there for long enough, id say go to Tomar and see the Templar city. Not much street art, the station and the trains had a bit when i was there and a few pieces around the town. But the Templar city is incredible. Plus you can get free oranges*.
*offer may be effected by seasonal disruptions.

Trip to Lisbon, by mrizzle on Nov 3, 2022 0:06:16 GMT 1, There was a fairly decent sized street art festival (Muro Festival) in Lisbon quite recently with quite a number of large murals added across the city. Iโm only really aware of it because of the piece that Nuno Viegas painted, which is huge by the way When I met him here for NuArt, he did say to me that itโs the highest wall heโs painted to date. Iโm not too surprised when you see images of it! Thereโs some information about his piece here but would definitely be worth finding out more about the others:
streetartnews.net/2021/07/shirt-mask-sow03-by-nuno-viegas-in-lisbon-portugal.html
Also found this about the festival with, I think, a map with the locations of the various murals:
www.festivalmuro.pt/en/
Also, I know Underdogs Gallery was mentioned but Crack Kids Gallery is very street art focussed and cool people behind it too. Might be worth checking out whoโs exhibiting while youโre there:
