💡 Ticket Notes:

• Myself (and some early birds) purchased Golden Circle tickets—right in front of the stage! (These are sold out.)

• I’ve requested a Sky Terrace for July 11th (my birthday!). If you'd like, you can grab a one-day pass or a general admission 3-day ticket.

If the festival isn’t your thing, no worries! Portugal’s summer beaches are calling. There will be plenty of chances to link up, especially if you book Vitor’s Plaza or a nearby hotel.

📍 1 Group Excursion I’ll be organizing a fun group event on July 11th or 12th—details coming soon! Stay tuned. 👀
