Algarve Classic Festival 2026 — Portimão

[Wapping]

A first for me on two levels.

1. I have never been to the Portimão Classic Car Festival before.

2. have never been too far outside of Lisbon, so the Algarve is unknown territory.

It’s all a bit trains, planes and automobiles to get there. First a walk to London Bridge, then a train to Gatwick airport, to catch up with ChasMill and David ‘Shouts’ Gray.



Flight tomorrow at 06:05. What does the ‘O’ stand for? Oh my God, it’s early.

Bring your sunblock, it's pretty warm here - at least along the coast a bit from Portimao.

It has been 29c today where I live....Nothing under 28c the last few months...Since the last part of April I think.
Be nice to have some rain though. Had some cool nights though this last couple of weeks, we had a 7c one night....Not normal for October.
