The story

National Agriculture Fair Santarem in Santarém

The National Agriculture Fair (Feira Nacional de Agricultura, or FNA), also known locally as the Feira do Ribatejo, is Portugal's leading agricultural trade fair, held each June at CNEMA in Santarem. The 2026 edition ran June 6-14 and highlighted small fruits such as blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries alongside its long-standing tasting and produce programming.

Every June, the halls of CNEMA on the edge of Santarem fill with the sounds and smells of Portugal's agricultural sector: livestock pens, running machinery demonstrations, and the clatter of tasting sessions in Hall A.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

As Portugal's leading annual meeting point for agriculture, the fair brings together producers, businesspeople, experts and the public at CNEMA, the National Center for Exhibitions and Agricultural Markets built to host it

02

The mystery stays covered

Its 2026 theme on small fruits reflects a real shift in Portuguese farming, positioning berries as a fast-growing, high-value crop tied to health-conscious consumption, and the fair backs that theme with debates and live cooking rather than static displays alone

03

The city starts moving

Hall A's Prazer de Provar room gathers a curated selection of regional products, oils, wines, cheeses, honey, sausages and sweets, with pairing sessions that give the fair a genuine culinary dimension

04

The water draws everyone in

Its dual name, Feira Nacional de Agricultura and Feira do Ribatejo, ties it to a regional identity even at national scale
