The second edition of the international event Art & Moto will be held between 25th and 26th April. Being the only one of its kind in Portugal and having achieved such great success with the inaugural event last year it has naturally evolved in shape and size. Therefore, it is now intended to have a broader format, in a space capable of accommodating more and varied participants and visitors, with bigger and better disclosure, thus seeking to correspond to a natural expansion in size and quality.
The event aims to promote not just a comprehensive lifestyle, but to also link the call for adventure and outdoor action in the world of arts, design, urban trends and extreme sports. Below is a summary of the main objectives of the event:
- To present videos made from all over the world, where bike usage is associated with a lifestyle that involves activities such as surfing, dress codes and art and design in its most retro influence.
- Exhibition of brand new bikes from reputable manufacturers, together with other classic or vintage bikes, cafe racers and customs, created by Portuguese builders who have already achieved international recognition.
- To promote contact between the worlds of surfing and bikes, already existent in other countries but still to be consolidated in Portugal. The display of brands, products and services related to surfing, as well as the mutual appeal to these two groups, integrating them in the same event, will encourage the relationship of these two worlds.
- On a more conceptual level, to have different customization elements, such as bikes, surfboards of fibreglass or wood, garments, footwear, books, helmets and the use of digital imaging networks, while being transversal and common to contemporary urban cultures.
