Have you been this year Richard? I believe the theme is TV characters.

It is on the N125 going towards the Algarve shopping center When you get to the roundabout in Guia you need to take the 3rd exit, it is well signposted. Enjoy it is an experience.

We went there last week and it is really superb this year. Looks good in the daytime but is lit up in the evening and it gives the sculptures a different effect - is much cooler walking around too. If you choose your time you can see both!
