III Meeting of Madeiran “Brincos” of Loreto

The Calheta Centre for Studies and Development, Education, Culture and Social (CEDECS) promotes the third edition of the Meeting of Traditional Madeira ‘Brincos’, which takes place at the parish of Loreto, in Arco da Calheta, on September 7th, on the occasion of the feast of Our Lady of Loreto, which is one of the region’s most emblematic religious festivals.
This event revives the typical Madeiran tradition of madeira ‘Brincos’, a tradition that takes place spontaneously in the typical Madeiran religious festivals ‘arraiais’, but in particular in the festivals held in Monte, Ponta Delgada and Loreto, where these groups used to get together to play and sing ‘despique’.
