Possible FC Porto title party on serenade night: FAP, council in talks | OneFootball

Given the combination of results from matchday 31 of the Betclic League, FC Porto could be crowned national champions on Saturday, when they host Alverca. If the blue-and-white title is confirmed in that match, it will happen on the same night as the Monumental Serenade of Queima das Fitas’2026, scheduled for Avenida dos Aliados, the place where FC Porto fans usually gather to celebrate the club’s achievements.

In light of this situation, the Federação Académica do Porto (FAP) and Porto City Council (CM Porto) are already in contact and analysing all possible scenarios so that both events can take place normally and safely. As a reference, when the title was won in 2017/18, a similar situation occurred, and the FAP and Porto City Council moved the academic event to Largo Amor de Perdição, next to Cordoaria Garden, a space where, moreover, several serenades have been held over the past decades.

For now, the situation remains under analysis, not least because, with FC Porto playing at home, it is natural that any blue-and-white celebration would be concentrated around the Estádio do Dragão, although tradition among Porto supporters means that the celebrations also inevitably pass through one of the city’s main avenues.

It should also be noted that the stage to be used for the Monumental Serenade, as well as for the Blessing of the Folders Mass, scheduled for Sunday morning, has already been set up on Avenida dos Aliados and, moreover, already hosted part of the celebrations of the 25 April anniversary in Porto last Saturday.
