Agia Napa Biennale 2026: The heart of Global Visual Arts Creation beats in Agia Napa.

The official opening takes place on Saturday, 7 November 2026, at 19:00, by Agia Napa Mayor Mr Christos Zannettos - 111 artists and honoured guests from 27 countries take part in the international visual arts event.

Agia Napa is preparing to welcome the "Agia Napa Biennale 2026", a major international visual arts event that brings the diversity of global artistic creation to the forefront and positions the city as a meeting point for different cultures, artistic trends and creative expressions.

The official opening of the Agia Napa Biennale 2026 will take place at the George Seferis Cultural Centre of Agia Napa. The international art exhibition will be hosted at this venue and at the Agia Napa Municipal Museum "Thalassa" from November 2026 to January 2027, offering the public the opportunity to discover works by artists from different countries and artistic schools.

Following the successful organisation of the Agia Napa 2025 World Triennial of Art, this year's "Agia Napa Biennale 2026" marks the second edition (Edition II) of the international visual arts institution, which has already established itself and gained global recognition and appeal. This development confirms the dynamism of the institution and further strengthens Agia Napa's international cultural presence, attracting the interest of the global art community.

This year's event presents a multidimensional art exhibition, with works covering a broad range of visual arts, such as:

• Painting
• Icon painting
• Sculpture
• Ceramics
• Multimedia
• Photographic art
• Photographic installations
• Fashion design
• Modern art

Through different techniques, materials and contemporary artistic approaches, the Biennale showcases the richness and diversity of contemporary visual expression.

The artistic direction and curation of the "Agia Napa Biennale 2026" have been undertaken by the distinguished visual artist Panikos Panayi Hatzidakis and Niki Goranova Sietsienka, while the event's technical adviser is Mr Andreas Antoniou.

As part of the Biennale, 35 awards and distinctions will be presented, including the "Premio Award", "Award of Excellence" and "Point of Mention", aimed at recognising artistic creation, originality and the quality of the works participating in the exhibition. At the same time, personalities will be honoured for their contribution to the field of art and culture, as well as sponsors who have supported the event.

The "Agia Napa Biennale 2026" is held under the patronage of the Mayor of Agia Napa, Mr Christos Zannettos, and the President of the Greek UNESCO Arts, Letters and Sciences Club, Ms Nina Diakovasili, which gives special significance to the event and strengthens its international cultural character.

The organization represents yet another important initiative to strengthen the cultural identity and international profile of Agia Napa, confirming that the city, beyond its long-standing reputation as a leading tourist destination, is evolving into a dynamic space for culture, artistic creation and international collaboration.

The Agia Napa Biennale aspires to become a point of reference for contemporary visual arts, fostering intercultural dialogue and building new bridges of communication between Cyprus and the international art community.
