Cultural events and film festivals across Cyprus in September 2026

Throughout September 2026, Cyprus is hosting a diverse array of cultural activities, including musical performances, theatrical shows, and film festivals. The "Myrothkies tou Giasemiou" music ensemble is touring various districts, with stops in Arediou, Mallia, Xyliatos, and Agios Ioannis Malountas, while the Byzantine music concert series "Adousa Eikon" is visiting UNESCO-listed monuments such as the Monastery of Agios Ioannis Lampadistis. Other notable performances include a tribute to Nobel laureate Giorgos Seferis in Platres and a concert by Miltos Paschalidis in Larnaca.

Simultaneously, the film scene is active with the launch of the "EXPLICIT" festival at the Rialto Theatre in Limassol, which is dedicated to the controversial works of director Lars von Trier. Screenings feature films such as "Nymphomaniac," "Dancer in the Dark," and "The House That Jack Built." In Nicosia, the Pantheon cinema is showing Kent Jones’s "Fame." Furthermore, several art exhibitions are ongoing across the island, including Nikos Kouroussis’s retrospective "Labyrinths" at the Limassol Municipal Arts Centre and various displays in Nicosia, Larnaca, and Paphos.

These events are organized as part of the broader Cultural Decentralisation Programme, aiming to distribute cultural opportunities across the island's districts. Ongoing exhibitions and festival programs are scheduled to continue through mid-October, providing continuous engagement for art and music enthusiasts.
