Christmas and New Year in Madeira
With its leafy landscape, balmy weather and charming culture, Madeira is a stand-out destination you can enjoy year-round. But one of the best times to visit is around Christmas and New Year when the locals go all out for their winter celebrations. Hotels fill up fast over this sell-out season, so be sure to book this amazing experience well in advance. Christmas lights will be switched on in early December!
Santo Amaro Festival
To mark the end of Christmas, Santo Amaro is celebrated across Madeira on 15th January. In Santa Cruz, things kick off with a candlelit procession, while music and food add to the fun.
