The celebrations, organized by the Boavista Neighborhood Residents' Association in partnership with Gebalis, the Benfica Parish Council, Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa, Retrocas, sports clubs, and other local entities, brought together residents, associations, and partners, aiming to highlight the neighborhood's identity and the community's sense of belonging.
The initiative offered moments of participation and sharing for people of all ages. Key highlights included the Boavista Neighborhood's 85th Anniversary Race, a Field Mass, a Fado Night, a Community Lunch, and musical performances by Jorge Guerreiro and Daniel Luz.
The celebration was attended by the Mayor of Lisbon, Carlos Moedas, who emphasized the significance of this date for the neighborhood and the city. Gebalis's participation in these events reaffirms its commitment to proximity work and the enhancement of local communities.
