Occasional Campsite at FMM Sines 2026

In 2026, an occasional campsite will once again be available in the town of Sines for members of the public wishing to attend FMM Sines - Festival Músicas do Mundo who are unable to find accommodation by other means.

The FMM Sines 2026 occasional campsite is located at the northern entrance to the town of Sines, next to the Multi-Purpose Sports Hall.

Although improvements have been made to the site, including shaded areas and additional facilities, please note that this campsite should always be regarded as a last-resort option, as the available facilities are basic and the site was not originally designed for camping.

Vehicle parking is available within the campsite.
