Holy Week 2026 - Good Friday and Easter Sunday - LISBON

Does anyone have any knowledge about the town of Lisbon for holy week? Does the town shut down? Or are there early closures? Looking to make a plan for easter sunday for my husband, daughter, and me. Welcome any suggestions. Thank you in advance for your time.

No, the city does not close down. There are Easter activities and street markets. Easter Sunday is a big day for families eating at restaurants, so they are all open. I also think most of the monuments are open. There will be more tourists than normal for April because lots of Spanish come to Portugal for the Easter break. I would definitely make restaurant reservations rather than trying to just walk in.
