Fan Meeting with Miguel Oliveira
AIA and Portimão Host Fan Meeting with Miguel Oliveira
Portimão’s riverside area will set the stage for a Fan Meeting with Portuguese MotoGP rider Miguel Oliveira, in an initiative designed to foster support and interaction ahead of the Portuguese Grand Prix, taking place at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve (AIA) from November 7 to 9.
Under the slogan “Acelera Portimão” (Accelerate Portimão), the event will kick off at 2:20 p.m. on November 6, inviting the entire community to join this special gathering at the Antiga Lota. The initiative aims to bring fans closer to the premier-class MotoGP rider and celebrate the spirit of motorcycling in the heart of the city.
In addition to an autograph session, the venue will feature a car and motorcycle exhibition area for photo opportunities. The AIA and several promotional partners will hand out free gifts, while the municipality will raffle off 30 weekend passes to the Grand Prix.
One of the event’s highlights will be a parade featuring Miguel Oliveira along the riverside promenade, from the Antiga Lota to Praça Manuel Teixeira Gomes (“Casa Inglesa”) — a 300-meter route blending tradition, excitement, and culture.
Admission is free.
