The Feast of the Blessed Sacrament is returning to Madeira Field in New Bedford this weekend.

The 109th Feast will feature a variety of food, wine and entertainment that highlights the rich traditions of Madeira and the entire Portuguese-American community.

This year, the Feast will make history with women serving on the executive board. It will also be the first celebration where women are festeiras (Feast committee members) from the start.
