Tonight, February 25, a very special concert will be given at the “Coliseu dos Recreios” in Lisbon, beginning at 21:30 local time. Num Pais Chamada Simone will be a tribute concert to Simone de Oliveira, to celebrate 50 years of a successful career.

Born in 1938, the lady represented her country twice at the Eurovision Song Contest, first in 1965 and then 4 years later. Tonight's concert features no more than 14 acts, a lot of well-known names of the Portuguese scene, including a gospel choir and 4 euro-veterans : Madalena Iglesias (1966), Dulce Pontes (1991), Anabela (1993) and Lucia Moniz (1996).
