The Regional Government Council approved, through Resolution no. 234/2026, the signing of a program contract with the Association of Philharmonic Bands of the Autonomous Region of Madeira (ABFRAM). This support aims to carry out the 41st Regional Meeting of Philharmonic Bands of RAM project, a culturally relevant event that promotes traditional music and the work of the region's philharmonic bands.
The financial support granted will not exceed €29,500.00, valid until December 31, 2026. The measure reinforces the strategy of the Regional Secretariat for Tourism, Environment and Culture in valuing intangible heritage and decentralizing cultural offerings in Madeira.
The Autonomous Region of Madeira will co-finance the 'Mesclarte 26 - Atlantic Summit of Creative Industries' with 17,500 euros.
The Madeiran Executive has authorized a 5,000 euro program contract to ensure the operation of the Sao Lourenco da Camacha Parish Band in 2026.
A musical show at Santa Catarina Park, taking place on May 1st, will honor the international career of Madeiran musician Luis Jardim.
