Between February 25th and March 1st, 2026, FIL (Lisbon International Fair), in Parque das Nações, hosts another edition of the largest tourism showcase in Portugal. It is at this annual meeting that destinations, hotels and travelers come together to discover trends, plan trips and enjoy new experiences.
The Luzeiros Hotels Group debuts at BTL to present its offerings in Lisbon and Brazil, inviting all visitors to get to know the essence of the group up close: hospitality, comfort and attention to detail.
What is BTL: Better Tourism Lisbon Travel Market
BTL presents itself as a privileged meeting point between professionals and the public. For five days, the event brings together hundreds of activities, presentations and experiences related to tourism, becoming a space where it is possible to choose destinations, take advantage of exclusive opportunities and inspire future trips.
For those who like to plan getaways or complete vacations, visiting the fair is also a practical way to find countries, regions, and hotels in one place, usually with special conditions available during the event.
Why is the Luzeiros Hotels Group present at BTL?
The Luzeiros Group, with a strong presence in Northeast Brazil, with three renowned hotels in Fortaleza, Recife, and São Luís do Maranhão, a destination much loved by the Portuguese, and a unit in Lisbon, a transit city for most Brazilians visiting Europe, reinforces the connection between Portugal and Brazil with its presence at BTL, presenting four distinct destinations, but united by the philosophy of hospitality.
At Stand 3C03, you can learn about the group’s units, ask questions, discover travel suggestions, and prepare for your next stay with direct support from the team from both countries.

Visit Parque das Nações: check out Luzeiros Suites’ suggestions
If you’re coming to Lisbon to participate in BTL (Better Tourism Lisbon Travel Market), take the opportunity to explore one of the most contemporary areas of the city. Parque das Nações was born from a major international event, Expo’98, and has transformed into a modern neighborhood where architecture, culture, leisure, and gastronomy coexist with the Tagus River as a backdrop.
Between wide riverside promenades, well-maintained gardens, and an active cultural agenda, this is an area that invites you to explore at your own pace. Here are our suggestions to complement your visit to BTL.
Parque das Nações: odern Lisbon by the Tagus River
Created as part of the 1998 World Exposition, dedicated to the oceans, Parque das Nações has become an example of successful urban redevelopment. The area developed under the imposing Vasco da Gama Bridge and with a direct connection to Oriente Station, now establishing itself as a balanced space between housing, culture, and entertainment.
With ample green areas, terraces near the river, bars and restaurants overlooking the Tagus, it’s an ideal setting for an afternoon stroll after a day at the fair.
Lisbon Oceanarium: a journey through the world’s oceans
One of the largest indoor aquariums in Europe, the Oceanarium is a must-see for children and adults.
