Venue Information

European RosettaCon 2026 will take place at the Rectory of the Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal

Lisbon is set along the broad estuary of the Tagus, bearing the layered imprint of a city that once anchored a global maritime empire while repeatedly rebuilding itself after earthquakes and political upheavals. Its cultural life is shaped by centuries of Atlantic exchange: Manueline architecture, azulejo-covered façades, and the distinctive melancholy of fado coexist with a contemporary arts scene and diverse Lusophone influences. The city’s hills, riverfront vistas, and proximity to the Atlantic create a luminous landscape that frames both its historic quarters and its modern expansions.
