Fodor's Expert Review Semana Internacional de Piano de Óbidos

This long-running festival offers two weeks in late July to mid-August of top-quality piano music. Most concerts in Óbidos (there are a few in Caldas da Rainha) are staged in the compact Casa da Música near the main gate, and given the town's small size you may well end up rubbing shoulders with a star performer—or even Portugal's president, the event's patron—during your stay.
