Hostesses in Porto
Staff for trade shows, congresses and events in Porto and the Matosinhos area. Reception, room support and booth assistance defined by tasks, languages and programme.
Request staff in Porto
The venue and programme define the team.
A reception at Alfândega, a booth at Exponor and a company meeting in a hotel need different task allocations. Wira prepares hostess and event support proposals for projects in Porto and the surrounding area based on the programme, posts and languages required for each task.
For an event spread across venues, separate the teams, meeting points and decision-makers. Exponor is in Leça da Palmeira, Matosinhos; it should not be planned as a central Porto venue. Travel, logistics and coordination are defined in the proposal, without implying a local office or immediate availability.
Two venues, two access plans.
Alfândega do Porto
The Alfândega Porto Congress Centre is on Rua Nova da Alfândega in Porto. For congresses, specify attendee arrival, registration, rooms, speakers and information points.
Exponor · Matosinhos
Exponor lists its venue on Av. Dr. António Macedo, Leça da Palmeira, Matosinhos. For trade shows, provide hall, booth, team access, passes and the exhibitor’s contact.
Corporate spaces
At hotels or other venues, confirm accessibility, reception points, room layout and location changes. Permissions or conditions at one venue do not establish those at another.
Dates and working hours
Each exhibition or congress has its own calendar. Check the edition on the organiser’s website and distinguish public opening, staff arrival, briefing, breaks and closing tasks.
Defined tasks for each visitor journey.
Reception and guest lists
Orient guests, check authorised lists and refer incidents to the responsible person without making access decisions outside the agreed instructions.
Booth assistance
Welcome professionals, explain approved messages and introduce them to the appropriate salesperson or specialist.
Room support
Indicate locations, coordinate entry and session changes, and communicate capacity or accessibility incidents to their owners.
Speakers and meetings
Provide assistance according to the agenda, confirm meeting points and notify the coordinator of programme changes.
Languages by task
Specify whether you need Portuguese and English, Spanish or other languages for reception, sales support or interpreting. Selection depends on proficiency, role and availability.
Coordination and handovers
Allocate posts, an incident contact and the handover of lists, materials or devices according to authorisations and agreed hours.

Questions before booking.
Are Porto and Exponor in the same municipality?
No. Alfândega is in Porto; Exponor is in Leça da Palmeira, Matosinhos. Share the exact venue to plan arrival and travel without confusing the two locations.
What staff can we request?
Reception, booth assistance, room and meeting support or coordination, according to the agreed scope. Tasks, training, languages and availability are defined in the proposal.
Can we request Portuguese and English speakers?
You can specify these languages and the proficiency required by each task, plus others where necessary. Selection depends on the briefing and availability; specialist interpreting is scoped separately.
Does staffing include access passes and registration software?
Not automatically. Permissions, devices, tools, list preparation and their owners are agreed separately; staff work to authorised instructions.
Can you support events across multiple venues?
Coverage can be proposed by space and timetable. Posts, decision-makers, handovers and travel must be specified; one team is not assumed to cover simultaneous duties at two venues.
What information is needed for a proposal?
