Cyprus’s Deputy Ministry of Tourism announced that nine “Christmas Villages” will be established across the island for the 2026 festive season. The villages will be located in Agros, Deryneia, Kakopetria, Kalopanagiotis, Kyperounta, Lefkara, Lofou, Stato‑Agios Fotios, and Fikardou.
The events are scheduled to run from 21 November 2026 to 6 January 2027. The selection of sites followed an evaluation process for applications submitted under the ministry’s programme for promoting tourism during the holiday period.
Each village is expected to feature traditional Christmas decorations, local crafts, food stalls, and cultural performances, aiming to attract both domestic and international visitors during the winter months.
Cyprus’s tourism authorities have highlighted the initiative as part of a broader strategy to boost seasonal tourism and showcase the island’s cultural heritage during the holiday season.
