Two festivals this weekend will take visitors on mini road trips outside the city. The 1st Spring Fair in Lofou, organised by the Chrysofilitissa Bakery, invites families and friends to join its festivities this Saturday and Sunday at the village’s central square.
From 10am to 5pm, a wide array of activities will take place including a pop-up market, games for children, bouncy castles, Easter clay creations, painting, live music and of course, plenty to eat and drink.
Over in Oroklini, the Oroklini Lake Festival will host a day dedicated to exploring the biodiversity it hosts. The festival’s events will take place over the morning of Saturday between 9.30am and 1pm, during which visitors will able to take part in birdwatching and witness them in their natural habitat as they fly around the lake, explore the microcosm of freshwater invertebrates through stereoscopes, get crafty with painting and hands-on activities and rattle their brains with educational games on natural and biodiversity.
Another outdoorsy festival will take place in mid-May. The Akrotiri Spring Festival is set to engage visitors with the beauty and importance of the Peninsula on May 12 through a series of actions.
