This summer you’ll be able to see them all over Lisbon. But until then, here are the five winners of the Sardinhas 2024 competition.
There are already winners of the 2024 Sardines competition. This year, four are Portuguese and one is foreign, but all of them were designed by women.
In the year of the competition’s 14th anniversary and the 50th anniversary of April 25, the themes were: carnations, books, the price of olive oil, cheese and a varina.
The five creators of the sardines are aged between 17 and 47 and, with the exception of one creator who is from the Netherlands, all the others are Portuguese (with participants from Lisbon, Massamá, Montijo and Rio Tinto).
The five were chosen in a vote by employees of the Empresa de Gestão de Equipamentos e Animação Cultural (EGEAC), and their creators will now each receive a prize worth 1,500 euros.
This year the competition received 3,582 entries from 62 countries.
