S. Peter gave truce! Thousands of people, gathered to watch and participate in the XXVII Carnival Parade of São Mamede de Infesta



The animation returned yesterday, February 21, to take over São Mamede de Infesta, with its already traditional Carnival Parade, in which several groups and revelers paraded in the procession of the festivities, between music, bombos, cabeçudos, masks and streamers.

Remember that the Carnival festivities were interrupted for the last two years because of the covid-19 pandemic, but the return of the festivities brought thousands of people to the center of São Mamede de Infesta.

Throughout the afternoon, the parade went through several arteries of the city, on a ground covered with colorful streamers, while in the air flew coquetes, which are small parcels of crushed rubber thrown between the revelers scattered on the streets and those who were in the floats. In total, 21 Associations, Collectivities and Institutions participated in the parade, full of satire, from sports to the environment, including local, national and international politics.

The President Leonardo Fernandes, is proud of the commitment of all, as well as the dynamics created today by Mamedendes, Senhorenses and visitors giving color to the city and already the traditional Carnival Parade.

Leonardo Fernandes, does not forget to thank the Mayor of Matosinhos, Dr. Luisa Salgueiro, in the person of Mr. Vice President, Carlos Mouta, for the support provided, particularly by its technicians, municipal police and EcoRede (Rede Ambiente) that promptly made the cleaning of the streets where the parade passed.

The parade was accompanied by the Vice President of the Municipality of Matosinhos and the President of the Parish Union of São Mamede de Infesta and Senhora da Hora, was also the executive, who received and greeted the revelers.
