Pyrga Renaissance Fair

Pyrga village dresses-up as a magical Renaissance village, taking visitors back in the time of the reign of the Venetian Queen Ekaterina Cornaro. The concept is based on an imaginary pilgrimage of the queen to the Royal Chapel at Pyrga, where a themed fair takes place in honor of the last Queen of Cyprus.

Be there to welcome and greet Her Majesty and her courtiers and follow her procession in the streets of the village.

Walk along with the performers dressed in medieval costumes, sing along with the community choir and dance together with the local groups. Enjoy story-telling, poetry, a magical juggler performer and kids’ activities. Take part in Archery, horse riding and other activities of the medieval era.

There will be stalls in the streets around the Royal Chapel selling food and drinks with a Renaissance touch, local products and handicrafts such as honey, olive oil, herbs and jewelry.
