Now I know it's only April and May is just around the corner and I am getting a bit ahead of myself but I am getting a tad thirsty so does anyone out there know when the Limassol Wine Festival is this year or failing that can anyone point me in the right direction for an answer? Thanks ever so.....and it's not only because the wine is free and you can get jugfuls from the Limassol Municipality cavas up there !!!!! Thanks in advance. Outasite..soon to be outahead ho-ho

Here you go - according to the wonderful world of Google . . . . Limassol Wine Festival when: 27 Aug - 5 Sep 2010 (annual) where: Municipal Gardens cost: Free time: 8pm Limassol, Cyprus' wine-growing capital, celebrates the country's rich viticulture with the annual grape harvest festival. Scores of the island's wineries and vineyards converge on the town's stately Municipal Gardens to share some of the fruits of their labours. Tasters take the opportunity to tuck into some of the island's gastronomic specialities alongside Muscats, pine-flavoured Retsinas - and not to forget some of the island's renowned dessert wine, Commanderia - all against the backdrop of music and dancing at the Gardens' open-air theatre. Cyprus has been making wine for about 6000 years (from 4500-3900 BC), so Cypriots have had considerable practice with the harvest celebrations. One of the most commanding spectacles of this annual event is to witness the traditional pressing of the grapes that signals the beginning of the festivities.

We went last year , there is a free return coach from Paphos .. We should arrange a P.P night there for this year , you just have to let the C.T.O know 24hrs in advance of the numbers and they put on a free return bus.. I was a good night out ... |
