Porto Music Stories is an independent cultural project that showcases the musical diversity that inhabits Porto. Inspired by the roots of Brazilian music, Lusophone culture, world music, and its encounters with other sounds.
Why we need your help
Over the past two months, we've hosted four editions of Porto Music Stories with a lot of love and dedication. We've invited incredible artists, created unique experiences, and captured everything in video and photos to showcase the project's soul.
We asked the public for collaborative contributions, received occasional support, and received some donations that helped cover part of the costs—especially in the production of the first videos. But even with all this collective effort, we couldn't secure the resources necessary to keep the project active with the quality and professionalism it deserves.
That's why we launched this campaign. We want to continue bringing good music, cultural encounters, and new stories to the public of Porto—in an accessible way, but valuing those who work in the arts.
And with you by our side, this is possible.
If you can donate, choose one of our rewards. If you can't donate right now, share the campaign. Every bit counts.
Together, we can make Porto Music Stories happen — stronger, more alive, more beautiful.
