Mariza

Born in Mozambique and raised in Mouraria, one of Lisbon's most traditional and emblematic neighborhoods, Mariza was influenced by the unique musical culture of Fado. Inspired by the great names and iconic voices of this genre, Mariza quickly became a local phenomenon, and soon her name gained recognition beyond the country's borders. Heiress to the state of mind of the Portuguese people, Mariza rose to world heritage status, made the world her stage and seduced the most demanding audiences.

Mariza stands not only for her own name but is also a proud ambassador of Portugal – a country that continues to admire her, that proudly assumes her as an indispensable part of its cultural identity, and celebrates every note, every song, and every concert she performs.

Mariza’s public recognition is also reflected in over 30 platinum albums and numerous national and international awards she has received throughout her career. In 2024, Mariza presented her new album »Amor«, a recording that celebrates a career spanning more than two decades while also winking at her future.
