In Campo Maior, local and political leaders have focused on regional development, cultural heritage, and sustainability. During the Festas do Povo, Paula Santos of the Portuguese Communist Party advocated for the implementation of administrative regions to address territorial asymmetries, while Mayor Luís Rosinha promoted environmental initiatives such as the ‘Vidro com Valor – Separar é Valorizar’ recycling campaign.

Following the festivities, which gained national and international recognition, the municipality has continued its focus on economic and cultural growth. This includes ongoing economic development support for local entrepreneurs in partnership with the Alentejo Regional Development Agency (ADRAL) and the announcement of a cultural agenda for September.
