International Algarve Fair & Dog Show 2018

Now in its 13th year, the International Algarve Fair is a great family event targetted to the expatriate community in Portugal and attended by many thousands of visitors every year.

The two day fair offers a wide variety of entertainment and fun things to do and see for every age group, including the popular annual Algarve Dog Show.

The theme for the 2018 International Algarve Fair is ‘Something to shout about’ and is based on the fact that Portugal has had so much to shout about over the past year. The Fair will celebrate the successes of the past 12 months.

The venue for the Fair - FATACIL showground in Lagoa - has recently undergone delevopment and there's now more space and outdoor areas, where visitors to the Fair will be able to browse the stalls and exhibitions with ease.

As with previous Fairs, the weekend will be packed with exciting events and attractions, from a range of restaurants, children’s entertainment, live musical performances and sporting events, to a wide range of stalls with many exclusive offers and promotions.
