From the 4th of June to the 30th of September, the Algarve Congress Center, in Vilamoura, will become the preferred location to host, during the summer months, the Immersivus Gallery, the first gallery of immersive artistic experiences in Portugal.

This initiative, signed by the OCUBO atelier, known for the creation of large-scale multimedia and video mapping projects, will be inaugurated on June 4th at 20:00, with the exhibitions «Il Divino Michelangelo & Il Genio Da Vinci” and “Impressive Monet & Brilliant Klimt”.

With the multi-sensorial format gaining more and more followers and the playful character added to the pedagogical component, the opening of the Immersivus Gallery in the Algarve constitutes not only an invitation to the local public but also to national and foreign tourists, to show the masterpieces of four geniuses in the history of humanity and painting, in a more dynamic, fun and contemporary way.

The immersive experience is the result of the technological option installed at the Algarve Congress Center, which uses a combination of the high technical complexity of 360º projections and will provide trips to the works of four of the best-known artists of all time; Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci, Claude Monet and Gustav Klimt.

“Il Divino Michelangelo & Il Genio Da Vinci» has three daily sessions, from Tuesday to Sunday, at 20:00, 21:30 and 23:00. On the same days, at an alternating time, the exhibition «Impressive Monet & Brilliant Klimt» can be seen at 20:45 and 22:15.

Golf Holidays Breaks in Algarve

The Algarve, being the most southern province of Portugal, offers a semi-tropical climate, a cold winter and hot, but very pleasant summers, providing conditions for fantastic golf breaks all year round. There are 39 Golf Courses in the Algarve from west to east and almost all of them offer several options for multiple games, “golf packages”, where the player gets advantageous discounts. We have the example of dynamic packages that start from 2 or 3 rounds and offer an additional discount, such as the Vilamoura golf courses or the Amendoeira Resort. Vilamoura also offers Taylor made packages on its 5 golf courses, the traditional Old Course, the emblematic Victoria golf course and the popular Pinhal, Millennium and Laguna golf courses owned by the Dom Pedro group and therefore the options are many and with different types of discounts. A Group of 8 or more golfers have a free round for 1 player. Golf professionals also benefit from amenities and special conditions.

Quinta do Lago also offers combinations of 3, 5 or more rounds on its three golf courses, Laranjal, Quinta do Lago South and North, offering one free player in 16 and special conditions for the golf professionals.

Vale do Lobo on the two golf courses, Ocean and Royal also offer 1 free player in 8, a package of 3 rounds with 1 free round, excellent for those who want to play more than one round of golf at Vale do Lobo golf courses in the centre of the Algarve.

For the best golf holiday, we at Tee Times Golf Agency have around 60 golf packages to choose from all golf courses in the Algarve.

The most important areas of the Algarve for your golf holidays are Vilamoura, Vale do Lobo, Quinta do Lago, Lagos, Portimao Carvoeiro and Tavira, all of them have a set of very important Golf Courses such as Palmares, Boavista and Espiche, in Lagos.

Portimao has the legendary Penina Golf Course designed by Sir Henry Cotton and the excellent Morgado and Alamos Golf Courses, set in a peaceful environment at the foot of the Monchique mountains. The Morgado golf course, more demanding, recently home of the Portuguese Open and the Alamos golf course shorter but very demanding golf course in the short game, very wavy greens. Two good options in the region. In Carvoeiro, we have the Vale da Pinta & Gramacho golf courses and in Albufeira, the Salgados golf course is a lot of fun and not too far to the north after the highway, golf players can find the amazing Amendoeira Resort, Faldo and O´Connor golf courses and the popular Silves golf course.

In the Tavira area, in the eastern part of the Algarve, we have the best golf course in Portugal, and one of the best in Europe, the Monte Rei North golf course with the signature of Jack Nicklaus.

A little further south two excellent golf courses, Quinta da Ria & Quinta de Cima, plus the Benamor and Castro Marim golf courses, both very popular and pleasant to play and a course designed by the legendary Severiano Ballesteros that is Quinta do Vale, complement the golf offer in Tavira which is quite comprehensive and suitable for all types of players and provide also some great golf holidays in that part of the Algarve.

Portugal Masters in Vilamoura

The European Tour announced the postponement of the Portugal Masters in Vilamoura due to continued travel difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The golf tournament, which was scheduled to take place from April 29th to May 2nd at the Victoria Golf Course in Vilamoura, will be replaced by the Tenerife Open held at Costa Adeje Golf Course in Tenerife.

It is a disappointment that the current challenges with international travel have led to the postponement of the Portugal Masters at Victoria Golf Course. Everyone associated with the tournament, both in Portugal and on the European Tour, worked very hard to organize the event, which has been an important part of the schedule since 2007. Unfortunately, it was simply not possible to organize the event next month as well.
It will be rescheduled sometime later this year.

Tee Times Golf Agency is looking forward to new dates for the Portugal Masters in Vilamoura and will be delighted to offer all its services, since accommodation in the best hotels, such as Tivoli Marina Vilamoura*****, Crown Plaza*****, Vila Galé Ampalius****, Vila Galé Marina****, Dom Pedro Vilamoura & Marina****, among others equally welcoming, as well as the golf rounds at the other Vilamoura golf courses, such as Pinhal Golf Course, Millennium Golf Course and The Old Course, as well as transfers for all displacements, not forgetting the specialized suggestions for the best restaurants and nightlife in Vilamoura.
