Portugal at the European Festival
The Rancho Folclorico Cruz de Cristo will be representing Portugal at the 20th Annual European Festival held at Swanguard Stadium. Why not attend the Festival and show them your support. They will be performing on Saturday at 12:30 pm and on Sunday at 5:30 pm. Tickets can be purchased online or at the gate.
Also, did you know that there are two Portuguese-Canadians on the EuroFest BC Society Board of Directors? They are António Capela, President and Julieta De Pieri, Treasurer. There is also Fernanda Capela who is one of the Managers and is responsible for Storage and Flag Parade & Opening Ceremony. We should be proud to have people in our community who are so heavily involved in promoting Portuguese culture in B.C.
