Editor's Note

Welcome to the July issue. June was loud. July is the long evening after, the city stretching out into the heat, restaurants opening doors to the street, brewery terraces back in service.

Across the river at Alges, NOS Alive returns with Foo Fighters, Florence + The Machine and Lorde. In the bairro, Casa Capitao runs two strong nights, Musa de Marvila brings the terrace back for summer, and Festival Iminente marks its first Marvila arrival for September.
