A Glamorous Night to Celebrate the Centenary
Dulce Pontes and the Orquestra do Norte marked a night of celebration.
It was a night of glamour, emotion, and celebration that marked Marcolino’s centenary. On September 24th, the Cruise Terminal at the Port of Leixões dressed up for the occasion to welcome around 250 guests to a special evening that brought together family, friends, partners, and figures linked to the brand's history.
The celebration of Marcolino’s 100th anniversary was highlighted by the presence of the founders' family—a particularly symbolic moment honoring the roots and legacy of a company with a century-long history. Amidst reunions, shared memories, and great elegance, the evening was dedicated to celebrating the past while also looking toward the future.
Set against the unique backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean, guests were welcomed to an evening meticulously planned down to the last detail, where glamour and sophistication met the emotion of a historic milestone.
Music played a central role in the celebration. The Orquestra do Norte provided one of the evening's highlights, creating a soundtrack for a gala defined by elegant attire and a festive atmosphere. The event culminated in a grand finale featuring Dulce Pontes, who brought her unmistakable voice to the stage, closing the night with a memorable musical performance.
Throughout the gala, Marcolino’s history remained a constant presence, celebrating a journey built over several generations—one defined by a deep connection to watchmaking and jewelry, close relationships with customers, and an ability to evolve alongside successive generations.
More than just marking a date, the centenary gala was a tribute to the people who have shaped—and continue to shape—Marcolino’s history. It was a night of celebration, reunions, and emotion that united the past, present, and future in one of the Porto region’s most iconic venues.
