Lisbon Metro opening hours
First and last train, line by line — and what happens after midnight
The network does not close at midnight
Trains start at 6.30am and the last ones run until about 1.36am (next day), every day including Sundays and holidays. The hour after midnight belongs to the previous day’s service, which is why a timetable can show a train at “25.36”: it means 1.36 in the morning, and cutting it off at midnight would delete an hour of real service.
Scheduled timetable, valid from 20 June 2026 to 31 December 2026 (edition 23.04.00 of the operator’s official file).
First and last train by line
Across the whole line, in both directions: the first departure from any station on it and the last one.
| Line | First | Last |
|---|---|---|
| Blue line | 6.30am | 1.36am (next day) |
| Yellow line | 6.30am | 1.31am (next day) |
| Green line | 6.30am | 1.35am (next day) |
| Red line | 6.30am | 1.28am (next day) |
This is a timetable, not a live feed
Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. does not publish open data for the arrival time of the next train: its status interface exists but is behind a key and has no published terms of use. So this site does not give real-time information — it gives the scheduled timetable, which is a different thing and is called by a different name.
The stations, timetables and journey times on this page come from the GTFS file that Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. publishes as open data (Fonte: Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. — dados.gov.pt (CC BY)), edition 23.04.00, retrieved on 21 October 2026. Lisbon Metro is an independent guide: it is not run by Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. and has no connection with the company. Prices are the ones published by the operator on the date shown and can change. The Portuguese version of this site, with all 50 stations, is at metrolisboa.org.
