Lisbon, 21 January 2009 – The Vodafone Flash Concerts are coming to Porto, Évora, Coimbra and Faro, with a different line-up planned for each city.

The first concert is scheduled for 22 January at the Coliseu in Porto, with David Fonseca heading the bill. Following his act, the concert will continue deep into the night at the Coliseu with the Dezperados (DJ Set).

On 24 January, the music is ‘teletransported’ to Évora, where Buraka Som Sistema will offer a rhythm-packed night at the Arena D’Évora. After the concert, the Dezperados return to the stage once again.

In February, the concerts come to Coimbra and Faro. On 19 February, The Vicious Five play at the Ar D’ Rato club in Coimbra, followed by DJ Vibe, and on 21 February, the Pavilhão do Farense in Faro will throb to the music of Rita Redshoes, with DJ Vibe bringing the night to a close.

Vodafone’s music strategy has been operating for some years and is characterised by the design and production of original, innovative events. Vodafone plays a unique and decisive role in enabling the Portuguese public to participate in music events both in Portugal and abroad.

These Vodafone Flash Concerts follow the success of the 2007 Flash Concerts which were held in 6 cities in Portugal between April and August of that year.

Complete information about this initiative, together with biographies of the performers taking part, is available on the Internet.
