Tourism Industry Threatens Lisbon's Most Valuable Treasure Residing Within Casa Capitão, According to Musicbox
In the heart of Lisbon's vibrant Cais do Sodré district, the Musicbox concert hall has been a beloved cultural hub for many years. However, the team and programming of this iconic venue are set to move to a new project called Casa Capitão, as announced by the venue's manager on Wednesday.
The decision to relocate comes as a result of the city's growth model, which has been the subject of much criticism. The model, primarily based on tourism, has also been accused of encouraging real estate speculation.
The manager of the Musicbox concert hall has voiced their disapproval of this growth model, stating that it is detrimental to the city's cultural scene and the preservation of its unique character. Despite this, the exact name of the manager who initiated the Casa Capitão project remains unmentioned in the search results.
The Musicbox concert hall will close its doors on September 15, marking the end of an era for music lovers in Lisbon. The new project, Casa Capitão, promises to continue the legacy of Musicbox, offering a platform for local and international artists to showcase their talents.
This move is not just a relocation for the Musicbox team, but a step towards a new venture that aims to create a space that is more in line with the values and aspirations of those who cherish Lisbon's cultural heritage. The exact details of Casa Capitão are yet to be revealed, but one thing is certain: the spirit of Musicbox will live on.
