A musical show at Santa Catarina Park, taking place on May 1st, will honor the international career of Madeiran musician Luis Jardim.
The Regional Government of Madeira has determined, through Resolution no. 179/2026, the realization of a musical show in tribute to the excellent career of musician Luis Jardim. The event will take place on May 1st, 2026, at Santa Catarina Park.
The organization of the show, which aims to honor one of the most prolific and respected studio musicians worldwide, was entrusted to the Regional Secretariat for Inclusion, Labor and Youth. Luis Jardim, who passed away in 2025, left a vast legacy, having collaborated with internationally renowned artists such as the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Tina Turner and Coldplay, while always maintaining a deep connection to his homeland.
The Regional Government has authorised a non-repayable grant of €967.97 for the Centro Cívico Cultural e Social da Ribeira Seca - Tuna de Câmara de Machico. The amount covers VAT paid in 2025 on expenses essential to the tuna’s activities.
The Regional Government Council revoked two decisions to fund cultural projects after their organisers said they could not go ahead because rescheduling was not possible. The revoked grants were capped at €5,000 and €1,500.
The Regional Government has authorised the distribution, from 2026 to 2029, of costs for the restoration project at São João Baptista do Pico Fortress in São Pedro. The investment amounts to €103,780, plus VAT.
