Portugal Day is dedicated to celebrating and honouring the country's language, culture, history and national identity. The day aims to foster a sense of unity, pride, and homeland appreciation amongst Portuguese citizens, both in Portugal and abroad. This spirit of togetherness extends to those in the Portuguese diaspora, symbolising the enduring bond within the global Portuguese community. It is also a time where the acclaimed poet Luis de Camoes, known for his work The Lusiads, is remembered for his contribution to the Portuguese language. Portugal Day resonates within the United Kingdom, given the long-standing historic ties between the two nations.
