We heard that the fireworks are back this new year's in carvoeiro, is this true? Last year we were all very disappointed as there were none.

Looks like it is true, saw a poster yesterday in the village advertising them.

When I was in CVO at the beginning of december I spoke to Jan Zegers (Piu owner) and he told me that there will be fireworks!

I saw the guys that set up the fireworks in the village the other day and there are posters in the village and its advertised in leaflets too so it does seem to be happening and by the looks of it its being funded by piu.

fireworks were excellent and because of this the square was much busier this year at NYE

We saw the fireworks being set up on Ferugado beach ( 3 containers worth _as part of the 8.5 tonnes used in the Portimao display.

We had our NYE in Albfeira where they were better than ever ( bigger than Portimao ).

How did CVO compare ??

I don't know about CVO but Portimeo fireworks were excellent everyone had a lovely time and it was good to see so many families out and about with no larger louts - the fireworks from the old bridge were lovely,lots of oohhs and rrrrs

Happy New Year to all

In the news they said that the fireworks in Portimao were the biggest in Europe, so how can Albufeira be bigger? I agree, the fireworks from the old bridge were beautiful, especially the ones looking like a waterfall coming off it.

The Albufeira display covers a long stretch of coast with many locations maybe this is why they claim to be the biggest.

Well Portimeao fireworks went up the river to Praia de Rocha and Alvor, nect year we are going to go to Alvor as they also had a stage with music etc. Did anyone go there ??
