The Hot Club of Portugal (Hot Clube de Portugal) is the oldest club of jazz in portugal and has uninterruptedly developed its activity since 1948. It occupies a cellar in Praça da Alegria, in Lisbon and it is a must for jazz lovers, offering always high quality musical programming.   It has its own jazz school founded in 1979 by bass player Zé Eduardo.

It was in March 1948 that Luis Villas-Boas became member number 1 of the Hot Club of Portugal, the first Jazz club created in Portugal. He had been the first to spread the taste for jazz music in Portugal at the microphones of the radio, at the end of 1945, in a program called “Hot Club”. It was then that the idea was born to create an Association with the objective of making this musical expression known and practiced in Portugal.
