The meat lovers usually go for grilled spare ribs, or for some beautiful <em>bifanas<\/em> (pork sandwiches).<br>Everything served with red wine or with the local beer Super Bock (don&#8217;t you dare drinking Sagres, the local beer from Lisbon, on S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o Festival in Porto!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone wp-image-8059 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/portoalities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/6991958190_544cd71fb1_c.jpg\" alt=\"S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival porto grilled sardines\" class=\"wp-image-8059\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9 Brankinha<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival in Porto is a very busy night, you should definitely book a table in a restaurant &#8211; don&#8217;t leave it to the last minute! Take a look at my suggestions of <a href=\"http:\/\/portoalities.com\/portos-best-restaurants-for-large-groups\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">restaurants for large groups in Porto<\/a>.<br>Many people choose restaurants in Ribeira, right next to D.

Marta Pereira da Costa shows a mix of Fado music, Jazz and Brazilian and Cape Verdean sonorities.<br>Later, Jo\u00e3o Gil takes the stage with an astounding list of guest musicians such as Ala dos Namorados, Ana Bacalhau, Carl\u00e3o, Jo\u00e3o Pedro Pais and Tim.

It is also the day of <em>Arruada dos Ranchos,<\/em> when many people come to the streets to listen and dance to <em>Rancho<\/em>, a traditional Portuguese music style and group dance.<br>On the 22nd of June, one of the greatest traditions of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival in Porto takes place, Rusgas de S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o. It is a great parade of people and music with everyone dressed in traditional clothing displaying the colours of their neighbourhood.<br>At the end of the night, judges decide on which neighbourhood is the winner of the year based on their music, choreography, clothing and set design.<br>Right after, the city receives one of the Portugal most recognised artists, Jorge Palma, in a great concert with many guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plan Your Stay &amp; Experiences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to make the most of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o without stressing over the details?

You can read my <a href=\"http:\/\/portoalities.com\/how-to-use-the-metro-of-porto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">complete guide to the subway of Porto<\/a> to clarify all your questions.<br>Using a car, during the night of S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival in Porto, is simply irresponsible and a real nightmare. There are thousands of people on the street and many drunk drivers. In addition, parking is impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to wear to the S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since it&#8217;s a party, a lot of people have the temptation to dress in really nice and expensive outfits to go to S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival in Porto.<br>Being a seasoned attendee, I strongly advise against wearing really good clothes.<br>Ladies and gents, wear comfortable shoes (you will probably walk a lot and heels will kill you!) and clothing too. Trust me, if you don&#8217;t spill beer on yourself, someone else will and you will surely end the night smelling like grilled meat and sardines (open barbecues everywhere!).<br>Another piece of advice: there&#8217;s usually a drop in temperature at night in the city so, while there&#8217;s a lot of people and body warmth, it does get quite cold, so carry something warm in your bag to use later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When should I book accommodation for S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o in Porto?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As early as possible. S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o is the busiest night of the year in Porto, and the best places sell out months in advance. If you&#8217;re planning to come, book your stay right now \u2014 you can always cancel later if plans change.<br>\ud83d\udc49 Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/portoalities.com\/en\/where-to-stay-porto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">my Guide to the best neighborhoods to stay in Porto<\/a> to pick the perfect area for your trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o festival in Porto safe?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o is generally very safe \u2014 it\u2019s one of the biggest nights of the year, and there\u2019s a strong police presence throughout the city. That said, it\u2019s still a massive street party, so take basic precautions: avoid bringing expensive gadgets, don\u2019t carry large amounts of cash, and watch out for pickpockets in crowded areas.
