Paphos Carnival - bright colours and loud music!

Paphos Carnival is a fantastic fun event of lots of traditional and modern activities. 

The colours are loud and the music louder.  It’s not Rio de Janeiro, but it’s something you’ve just got to see! 

Cyprus celebrates Carnival with fancy dress, parties and a procession through the towns of Paphos and Limassol.  

The Carnival takes place the weekend before the start of Lent.  It is a last celebration before the rigours of Lent start with Green Monday after the Carnival weekend.
