Lisbon, Portugal – On March 8, 2026, the historic Pátio da Galé will host the second season of GALA8 – a celebration of International Women's Day that has become one of the most talked-about events in the Portuguese capital in just one year.
In March 2025, the first season of GALA8 brought together 120 guests at Pestana Palace. The evening was intended as a one-time occasion, but the response exceeded all expectations — people talked about it for months, and requests to attend Season II began arriving within weeks.
The second season will take place at Pátio da Galé – a historic venue on Praça do Comércio, home to Lisbon Fashion Week. The event expands to 500 guests.
Headlining the evening is Yann Destal of Modjo, known for the iconic hits Lady (Hear Me Tonight) and Chillin'. This will be their first live performance in Lisbon. A secret guest will open the concert programme.
Dress code: evening elegant.
The organisers are personally curating a collection of wines and champagnes for the event.
GALA8 brings together entrepreneurs, diplomats, creative industry leaders, influencers, and media personalities from Portugal and across Europe. Season I guests included founders of international companies, diplomatic mission representatives, artists, and opinion leaders.
