Palácio da Bolsa Concerts 2024

The Bolsa Palace, or Palácio da Bolsa, is a historic building in Porto, Portugal. Constructed in the 19th century, it showcases stunning neoclassical architecture. The palace served as the city's stock exchange and impresses visitors with its opulent interiors, including the Arabian Hall, known for its intricate details. Today, it is a cultural and touristic landmark, offering guided tours that provide insight into Porto's economic and architectural history. Tickets for adults cost €12, and it's recommended to wait for the language-specific tour, allowing time to absorb the palace's grandeur and appreciate the view of the dome and the mosaic tile flooring. The guided tour, lasting about 30 minutes, proved to be perfect for us. Inside, the palace features stunning chandeliers, beautiful rooms, enchanting staircases, old and mesmerizing illusion-style wooden floors, and a particularly captivating Arabian Room.

A lovely palace. Went at 9 am reading other reviews on it being hard to get tickets, but it was wide open and only 3 people other than us. Had a very brisk tour with a good guide .Wish the guide would have let us linger and take photos and savor the place rather than rush us from room to room. I was literally running behind her as I stopped and clicked 😆😆

One of the nicest monuments of Porto. The architecture of the palace is amazing and the history of it is very nice. The guide was very friendly (you can't enter without a guide, where it is provided by the palace with a fair price) and explained very well all the details.

We arrived first hour in the morning just before got completely full. We had an amazing guide just for ourselves. She was kind, helpful and really knowledgeable. We enjoyed the beautiful palace and impressive architecture. I recommend going early in the morning so you can enjoy it when it’s empty.

Such a stunning building in the historic centre near the river. I hadn’t realised that a tour was mandatory, the English speaking ones were full unless I wanted to wait a few hours so I went on a Spanish speaking one and only grasped a handful of words so I don’t really know the history of the place, but the guide seemed friendly. The tour lasted about 30 minutes, paid €7.50 as a student to get in, think it would’ve been a bit expensive at full price, but it was still worth it to see the beautiful building. Definitely recommend buying a ticket in advance, helps for planning out your day.
