Keep pushin' 'til it's understood
These badlands start treating us good

Welcome to Badlands, based in Porto, Portugal. Our work spans across film programming and live concert planning and production—all fueled by our deep love for music, in all its forms.
What We Do
Our film programming is a celebration of music on the big screen. We curate film screenings that focus on the powerful intersection of cinema and music—whether it's a documentary or a narrative film where music takes center stage. Each screening is designed to make a lasting cultural impact on local communities, resonating with both film and music lovers alike.
As for our live concerts, we're just getting started. We’re excited to bring the same energy and passion that defines our other ventures into the world of live music.
At Badlands, we’re not just another promoter or film programmer. Music runs through everything we do, setting us apart from the crowd. It's not just an interest—it's a driving force behind our work, influencing the way we think, the way we connect, and the way we promote ourselves. Our mission is simple: to be uniquely ourselves in everything we do. We strive to be different, to stand out, and to make sure that you will definitely hear us through all the noise.
Where We Work
Though we call Porto home, our work knows no boundaries. From North to South, East to West, we develop projects all across Portugal, bringing our distinctive style and vision wherever we go.
