ART EXPO ALGARVE is an international art fair presenting high-quality contemporary art in one of Southern Europe’s most distinctive cultural regions.
Hosted in Silves, the fair brings together galleries, independent artists, and both emerging and established voices within a dynamic and international context.

Our mission is to create a refined, inspiring, and commercially successful platform where contemporary art is discovered, experienced, and acquired — set within a sophisticated southern European environment that blends artistic excellence with the Algarve’s cultural heritage and lifestyle.

We believe in a fair that is intimate, curated, and accessible, without compromising quality.
A fair that brings together artists, galleries, collectors, and cultural professionals under one roof.
A fair that reflects creativity, authenticity, and the international spirit of the Algarve.

ART EXPO ALGARVE is built on three pillars:
Quality. Experience. Connection.

Silves is one of the Algarve’s most historic and culturally significant cities, known for its heritage, architectural identity, and growing creative presence.
Its increasing appeal to international residents, collectors, and culturally engaged visitors — combined with the Algarve’s strong tourism, high-quality lifestyle, and year-round international audience — makes Silves a compelling setting for a contemporary art fair with international reach.

FISSUL – Feira Internacional de Silves is a landmark venue in the Algarve, offering generous exhibition space, excellent accessibility, and the infrastructure required for a high-quality international art event.

Its neutral, flexible architecture allows artworks to be presented with clarity and impact, while its central location in the Algarve attracts a diverse and international audience. FISSUL provides the ideal framework for galleries and artists to engage with collectors, professionals, and the wider public in a professional and curated environment.

This combination positions ART EXPO ALGARVE as a distinctive event within the Portuguese and European art calendar.
