Charity weekend – 28 February and 1 March

All ticket revenue from MAC/CCB and from Mahler’s Das Klagende Lied concert will be donated to the Association of Philharmonic Bands of the Municipality of Leiria and to Sport Operário Marinhense, two institutions whose cultural presence is deeply rooted in the area recently affected by Storm Kristin. This initiative stems from a genuine desire to support the recovery of their infrastructures, which suffered significant damage, and to ensure that the cultural work they carry out in their communities can continue with the same dedication and close connection as always.
