Limassol Wine Festival 2026 – 26.9-4.10.2026

From 26 September to 4 October 2026, Limassol Municipality is organising the Wine Festival in Limassol Public Garden from 19.00 until midnight every evening. This year, we are celebrating the 64-year history of the Wine Festival with spectacular opening and closing ceremonies at the ‘Marios Tokas’ and an enhanced programme featuring popular performances, with dozens of artists, bands and groups from Cyprus and Greece entertaining the crowds every evening.

During the festival, visitors will have the opportunity to visit and enjoy the open-air restaurants, which will feature distinctive folk music at affordable prices whilst maintaining high standards of quality and hygiene. Wineries will be selling bottled wine at special prices and will be holding wine-tasting sessions from 20.00 to 21.00. Photography and cartoon exhibitions, as well as talks on wine production, will enrich this year’s Wine Festival. The Public Garden will be artistically illuminated and theatrically decorated.

Children have their own area at the Wine Festival. Come and make your own ‘Vrakas’ craft just as you imagine him. You can make ‘Vraka’ on wooden figures and as magnets.

Joining us is Vrakas the stilt-walker. There will be shadow theatre performances, a pottery workshop, and the magic created by the wonderful magicians will fill the air.

This year, the Wine Festival is expanding to include the wine-producing villages of our region. Two events will take place on the first and last Sundays. Visitors will have the chance to experience the genuine hospitality of our villages with traditional songs, dances, wine, local delicacies, palouze and siousiouko.

Tickets are on sale throughout the festival at each of the three entrances. Upon entering the festival through the main entrance, to the south, visitors can see the giant figure of a Cypriot winegrower in traditional local dress. Vrakas has remained the emblem of the Wine Festival since 1961.
