Madeira Casino Shows
My girlfriend and I went to the Casino show in June having been to the show twice before on previous holidays to Madeira. The previous two times the show was headlined and choreographed by Sian Lesley and it was fantastic which is why we wanted to see it again. However this has now been replaced by a new show which is quite frankly awful.

If people say that there is not much nightlife in Madeira, we have to admit that this is partly true during the week as – and that is the good thing about Madeira – daily life on the island hasn’t submitted yet to the rhythm of a tourist life. The ratio of tourists to locals – who live and work here all year round – is very low, so it is quite understandable that the working and studying population lives their climax of a ‘normal’ week on the weekends and then there are lots of things to do on an enjoyable night out until dawn!
