RFM SOMNII has nearly a decade of stories and a cumulative audience of 600,000 visitors. The concept of The Biggest Sunset Ever emerged in 2013 and has been held in Praia do Relógio beach, Figueira da Foz, since its second edition. The strategy of national and international promotion has contributed to reviving the image of Figueira da Foz as a tourist destination, increasing the notoriety of the Center of Portugal tourism region, and adding significant value to the economic fabric of the region. Brands such as RFM, Continente, Super Bock, MTV, Somersby, Mazda, SAPO, Millennium BCP, MEO, and SIC have recognized the attractiveness of this festival, which differentiates from the others by taking place at one of the most beautiful beaches of the Portuguese coast, right on the sand and with access to the sea. Named one of the largest beach festivals in Europe and nationally prominent, RFM SOMNII has featured several notable names from the world music scene such as DJ Snake, Hardwell, Tiesto, Chainsmokers, Martin Solveig, Alesso, Tyga, Ozuna, Afrojack, and Sebastian Ingrosso. These are some of the 251 artists who performed on our stages for 215 hours over 7 successful editions. In 2019, with the evolution and transformation of the festival, RFM SOMNII widened its venue and expanded its activities, wrapping the town of Figueira da Foz in music, culture, and art for 72 hours. This was born the innovative concept of Festival City. It generated more than 500 jobs and attracted an audience of 200,000 visitors, who had the opportunity to attend more than 150 activities, 26 concerts at the RFM Stage, and 16 concerts at the Blitz/SIC Radical Stage. The latest edition has reached significant levels of adherence, notoriety, and popularity. It placed RFM SOMNII at the forefront of the Summer festival scene, taking it to new heights that will allow the festival to break even more records in the 2021 edition.
