Campo Pequeno
This is a food-shop stop, not a flea market: certified organic producers bring fruit, vegetables, herbs and other Portuguese products to the Campo Pequeno garden. Pick up something seasonal for a picnic or a simple meal at home. The tourism board lists Saturday editions and free entry; confirm the current arrangements with Agrobio.

Jardim da Estrela
If you want a small souvenir with a maker behind it, this garden market is a good place to look: ceramics, jewellery, illustration and contemporary crafts rather than mass-produced trinkets. Pair a browse with a slow Jardim da Estrela walk. Use the published edition dates, not a guessed first-weekend rule; the tourism board lists free entry.
Details & tickets →
Centro Cultural de Belém
Browse contemporary crafts, illustration, jewellery and small brands at CCB, with food and activities in the wider market programme. A nice reason to linger in Belém, but not a daily market. Use the individually published edition dates: some special editions run over a whole weekend.

Lx Factory
Start with a coffee, then give yourself time to rummage: LX Market brings handmade pieces and vintage finds to LX Factory. A nice stop if you prefer browsing to ticking off monuments. The tourism board lists Sunday editions and free entry; check your chosen edition before travelling, especially in poor weather.
Details & tickets →CCB
Black Heritage Gospel Choir performs in the Grande Auditório at Centro Cultural de Belém on 10 December 2026. The venue publishes an extra performance at 18:00 and the main performance at 21:00, replacing its earlier 20:00 time. Choose your session with the venue before booking; the ticket-exchange window in October is not a performance date.

MAAT - Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia
Children choose artworks, invent stories and bring them to life through movement with Teatro Praga. Families are invited to see the final creation, rather than take the whole workshop together. It is a two-hour Portuguese-language activity for ages 8–12 at MAAT Central; meet at the Central ticket office. Book a published session and confirm the family viewing arrangements.

Castelo de São Jorge
Inside the castle’s Tower of Ulysses, lenses and mirrors bring a live, 360-degree Lisbon view into a darkened room. The guided visit is included in the castle ticket and offered in English and Portuguese, but depends on the weather and places available. Check at the ticket office that day; this is not a photography workshop.

Museu das Ilusões
At the Museum of Illusions in Chiado, optical installations, puzzling rooms and visual challenges put perception at the centre of the visit. It is a hands-on stop for a group that wants to explore together. Check access for your party: the organiser notes that two exhibits have steps, even though the museum offers reduced-mobility access.

Sala Subterrânea da Estação do Metro Terreiro do Paço
A shared virtual-reality journey turns astronomy into something you can move through. Developed with the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, it follows a route from an observatory to distant stars and a black hole. Choose this for an immersive science outing rather than a conventional museum gallery.
