The largest classical music concert ever in Portugal.
On May 31, 2025, Andrea Bocelli returned to Portugal to celebrate 30 years of his career with a historic concert attended by around 25,000 people at the Estádio Municipal de Leiria.
Produced by MOT – Memories of Tomorrow, this performance was the largest classical music event ever held in the country, bringing together spectators from 63 nationalities and transforming the stadium into a monumental concert hall. Accompanied by 80 musicians from the Orquestra Filarmonia das Beiras and a 70-voice choir including members of the Coro Misto da Universidade de Coimbra, Coro Coimbra Vocal, Coro dos Antigos Orfeonistas da Universidade de Coimbra, Orfeão de Leiria, and Ninfas do Lis, the world’s most beloved tenor moved the audience with timeless pieces such as “La Donna è Mobile”, “Vivo per Lei”, and “Nessun Dorma”.
“This evening represents the culmination of months of intense preparation and the combined effort of hundreds of professionals who worked with passion and precision. It was an operation of immense complexity and an absolute success on every level – artistic, logistical, and emotional.” — Tiago Castelo Branco, CEO of MOT
Beyond its cultural significance, the event also had a considerable economic impact on the central region, attracting thousands of visitors to Leiria: “Andrea Bocelli’s presence in Leiria affirmed the city as a destination of cultural excellence.” — Gonçalo Lopes, Mayor of Leiria
Having sold out multiple concerts in Portugal in recent years, Andrea Bocelli once again made music history in the country with another unforgettable performance — a unique moment that will remain in the memory of all attendees.
MOT was responsible for the executive and technical production of this major event, as well as its promotion, reinforcing its position as one of Portugal’s leading producers of large-scale live shows. The project’s complexity and the final result reflect the team’s ability to deliver events of excellence — where every second on stage is supported by months of work, attention to detail, and passion.
