U2Portugal.com has heard that U2 currently negotiating two dates in Portugal, Lisbon and Oporto, in late August. This was first mentioned on the Portuguese radio station "RADIO COMERCIAL" and later confirmed by 'well informed sources' in the Portuguese music scene.
U2 are big in Portugal. All That You Can't Leave Behind was at the #1 spot in the Portuguese album chart for 7 weeks in a row. Beautiful Day, Stuck In A Moment, Elevation and Walk On were all went to #1 in the singles chart.
U2 have played Portugal three times before: 1982, 1993 and 1997. The last two were complety sold out, with close to 60.000 people attending the shows.

The only thing I want to say is that I planned my holidays for July when I knew that U2 were playing here in August. I wanted to see them last summer in London (Earl’s Court) but the 5 nights were sold out! And my flat was just in front! I’m already dreaming about this concert! I saw on TV “Live in Boston” and it was GREATTTTT! They are getting better and better! Please!!! Never forget Portugal! WE LOVE U GUYS!
