In Lisbon, thousands of people gathered at Terreiro do Paço to welcome 2026. The night was marked by moments of emotion, with foreign visitors promising to return to the Portuguese capital and even a marriage proposal made live.

Before the countdown, a drone show entertained the audience, preceding the most anticipated moment of the night. Around 10 minutes of fireworks followed, which exceeded the expectations of those watching.

Among the participants were those who had traveled from the United States to experience a special moment in Lisbon, a live marriage proposal sealed the commitment of a couple from Miami.

Some people assured that they will return to the New Year’s Eve party at Terreiro do Paço next year, while others expressed displeasure with the duration of the celebrations, considering the party to be short, as the last concert ended at around one in the morning.
