Newark, NJ - April 30th, 2025 - Mark your calendars for June 6, 7, and 8, 2025, as the Ironbound district of Newark-long celebrated as a cornerstone of Portuguese-American culture-once again opens its arms to the world with the return of Portugal Day by SolMar , now proudly celebrating its 28th edition. Presented by the Nobre Foundation Corp., this premier cultural festival spans three unforgettable days, uniting tradition, innovation, and community pride while reflecting the enduring spirit of the Portuguese people.

Now recognized as one of the largest Portuguese cultural events on the East Coast, Portugal Day in Newark draws tens of thousands of visitors from across the country and abroad. Attendees experience the rich legacy of Portugal through vibrant music, authentic cuisine, and a shared history that has flourished for generations in the heart of Newark's Ironbound. This event is more than a festival-it is a heartfelt tribute to identity, perseverance, and cultural continuity.

At the center of the celebration stands the team from SolMar Restaurant , whose decades-long legacy has helped define Newark's Portuguese gastronomic scene. Revered for authenticity and excellence, SolMar curates the festival's celebrated food court, offering traditional favorites such as grilled sardines, bifanas, fried eels, BBQ chicken, and the beloved pasteis de nata . The culinary experience is not just a highlight-it's a reflection of the values that define this community: flavor, family, and heritage.

Throughout the weekend, festivalgoers will enjoy a dynamic lineup of live entertainment. Featured performers include the iconic female duo Bombocas , modern folk artist Daniel Sousa , the high-energy rock covers of Banda 69 Graus , and the talented vocal duo Polly & Juliana Vitor . Contemporary sounds from Moda Nova and the electric presence of DJ Luis Oliveira will keep the atmosphere lively, while Rancho Danca na Eira brings traditional Portuguese folk dance to the stage with authenticity and grace.

Beyond music and food, the festival highlights cultural and educational initiatives. In partnership with the Newark Museum of Art, guests can enjoy hands-on art activities inspired by traditional Portuguese crafts. A special collaboration with the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) supports arts access for local youth and families. As part of its commitment to education, the Nobre Foundation will award scholarships to outstanding East Side High School students Jacqueline Larrosa-Serans and Roberto Torres, recognizing their academic excellence and community leadership.

Community engagement is deepened through partnerships with organizations like Reading Partners , which strengthens youth literacy by connecting students with dedicated volunteers, and the New Jersey Office for New Americans (ONA) , which will offer multilingual resources for immigrants and refugees-including free legal services, Know Your Rights guides, and information on accessing children's health insurance regardless of immigration status.

Portugal Day by SolMar is a celebration of unity, pride, and hospitality. It invites people of all backgrounds to experience the resilience, warmth, and joy of Portuguese culture. As the streets of Newark come alive with sound, color, and flavor, the Ironbound district once again welcomes the world to experience the true soul of Portugal.

Admission is free and open to all. For more information on the program, media opportunities, or ways to get involved, visit www.portugaldaybysolmar.com [http://www.portugaldaybysolmar.com/]
