- The demonstration starts at 15:00, with the return departure planned for 19:30 and arrival in Faro around 23:30.
- The advertised return fare is €9 and the coach has a maximum capacity of 50.

What is included in the travel plan
The organised journey is intended to make national participation easier for people living in the south. The timetable leaves roughly two hours in Lisbon before the demonstration and a short margin after the planned finish before the return journey.
Before registering, confirm the exact Faro pickup point, payment method, cancellation terms and whether the return coach will wait for a delayed event. Anyone needing accessible transport should ask the organiser about the vehicle before booking.
Prepare for a long day away from home
Take water, food, weather protection, necessary medication and a charged phone. Keep the organiser's contact details and return meeting point available offline in case mobile coverage is congested around the demonstration.
The coach booking and the public demonstration are separate arrangements. Follow police and organiser instructions in Lisbon and make an independent plan if you decide to leave the event early.
