Every spring, Braga celebrates the Roman influences on the city by decorating the city center with Roman-themed scenarios, featuring live performances. There is also a variety of shows involving fire, swords, etc., that take part in this celebration.
São João, a festivity where profane merges with holy, is a regional holiday in Braga and Porto. Annually, on the 24th of June, those who are religious demonstrate their faith by praying to this saint, while those who are not find in this night a pretext to party.
