Kindred Nations – Two Cultures Intertwined

Step into a world where port wine and afternoon tea, Camões and Shakespeare, fado and folk song all find a natural home. Through concerts, exhibitions, dinners, and talks, our members celebrate the richness of this centuries-old friendship – the oldest alliance in the world, still very much alive today.

For over eight decades, the Anglo-Portuguese Society has brought together those who share a deep affection for two of Europe's most captivating cultures. We are a community of entrepreneurs, diplomats, artists and friends united by a love of everything that makes Britain and Portugal so extraordinary.
