SUMMARY:Agia Napa 19th Medieval Festival - 12-19.10.2024
DESCRIPTION:The month October can rightly be called «Medieval October» for Agia Napa\, as these mysterious times are revived through its Medieval Festival. From the 12th to the 19th of October 2024\, Agia Napa time travels back to the Middle Ages. The 8-day long journey through the myths with the fair maidens\, the fairies and the iron-clad knights who battle dragons and villains\, transports us to a world of fantasy\, mystery and magic. Through the fantastic parades\, the re-enactments of events and the daily lives of people from another era\, the storytelling through music and song\, the Medieval Festival of Agia Napa leaves an indelible social and spiritual imprint of the legends.\nThe Medieval Festival was first celebrated in the year 2006\, and it has managed to become\, after 18 years of successful events and collaborations with other Medieval Festivals such as the Medieval Festival of Rhodes\, Malta – Mendina and the Carnival of Venice\, to become one of the largest in Europe. Music and dance performances\, street theaters and narrative tours by groups of dancers\, musicians\, artists and students from Cyprus and European countries\, follow the footsteps of medieval exploits. The festival also offers bazaars with handmade products and homemade food of that distant era and exhibitions of textiles\, weapons and embroidery\, which can be found along the passage of the Monastery of Agia Napa during the eight days. \nFor the programme click here
