The event, which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to Cascais every year, aims to “celebrate colors and forms in all their nuances, senses and aspects”, according to the organizers.

This year’s installations included an interactive skate ramp that flashed with different colored lights and shapes as skateboarders rode over it.
