Sunday 1 November
All Saints' Day (Dia de Todos os Santos)
A national public holiday in Portugal. Most shops and offices will be closed. Families traditionally visit cemeteries to clean graves and place flowers to honor their deceased loved ones. This day is also associated with the 'Pão por Deus' tradition.
Pão por Deus (Souling/Trick-or-Treating)
On the morning of All Saints' Day, children go door-to-door, often with decorated bags or baskets, asking for 'Pão por Deus' (Bread for God) or 'Bolinhos' (little cakes). They recite traditional verses and receive treats like bread, broas, dried fruits, chestnuts, pomegranates, sweets, or sometimes money. This tradition is Portugal's local observance, similar to trick-or-treating.
