About Sugar Sand Festival
Welcome to Sugar Sand Festival at Pier 60. They are happy that you are here. One sunset at a time, they look forward to making memories with you. The International Sand Sculpture Festival, or Festival Internacional de Escultura em Areia (FIESA), has been held annually in Pêra, Algarve, Portugal, since 2003. It is referred to as the largest sand sculpture event in the world. Sugar Sand Festival made by professionals can last for months. Sand artists use building sand, which is made of silt and clay and has angular grains. This keeps the sand together and binds it. In addition, they frequently compact the sand to make it more durable.
