What the numbers don't tell you

November is wetter and cooler, with afternoons around 18 °C, rain on about nine days, All Saints' Day on 1 November and Web Summit in mid-month filling every hotel in the city for four days at inflated rates. Outside that week, it is quiet and cheap, with sunny spells between the rain. Christmas lights go up on the Avenida and in the Baixa in the last week of the month.

São Martinho on 11 November brings roast chestnuts and the new wine to the streets. The Gulbenkian and the Ajuda Palace are the wet-day circuit. The Wonderland Lisboa Christmas market opens at Eduardo VII park at the end of the month. Daylight ends before half past five. For the mild, festive month and New Year's Eve on the Tagus, see December.
