On Dec 15, the Madeira Theme Park in Santana will once again promote “Christmas in the Park”, with plenty of activities that celebrate the traditions of this festive season. The entertainment will start at 3 pm with the Choir performance of the “Casa do Povo” from Santana, followed by the performance of the Children and Youth Choir of São Jorge and Santana. Later, the musical program continues with the Cultural Association “Lírios do Norte”. Various exhibitions associated with Christmas can also be visited in the Park’s grounds, which will remain on display throughout the Christmas season. Visitors will be able to see the traditional “Lapinhas” (nativity scenes with specific items), as well as seasonal flowers and plants and demonstrations of corn husk puppets and pottery. Another highlight is the preparation and demonstration of typical Christmas delicacies in the wood-fired kitchen of the Park, namely honey cake, traditional liqueurs, chicken soup and the typical dish of “Carne Vinho e Alho”. The park can be visited from Tuesday to Sunday, from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm and has several attractions dedicated to the preservation of the rich regional cultural heritage.
