Why Convoca
No account needed
Publish and discover events without creating an account. RSVP with just your email. No passwords, no profiles, no friction.
Built for Portugal
Every district, municipality, and parish in Portugal is mapped into the platform. Find events in your neighbourhood, not on the other side of the world.
Free and transparent
Convoca is a non-profit civic project. No ads, no investors, no hidden costs. We publish our exact running costs on the transparency page.
AI-powered event creation
Send a plain-language email or upload an event poster, and our AI extracts all the details automatically. Creating an event takes seconds, not minutes.
What you'll find on Convoca

Whether you're organising a community meetup in Lisbon, a surf gathering in Ericeira, or a traditional festa in the Alentejo, this is the place to share it with your community.
Create via email
