Kataklysmos Fair
A Greek Orthodox festival with strong pagan roots
focusing primarily on water, Kataklysmos or Festival
of the Flood marks the day of the Holy Spirit. Coastal
cities make the most of the opportunity, staging
concerts and games near the waterfront, but even
inhabitants of inland towns and particularly children
– their water guns a necessary accessory,
enjoy a good ‘splash’. The sea front
promenades in cities take on the appearance of an
open-air fairs with scores of stalls selling toys
and traditional food. Traditional culture takes
pride of place with a competition for “chatista”
or rhyming songs in the Cypriot dialect. Other performers
include popular Greek and Cypriot singers and dance
troupes. In line with the spirit of the celebrations,
events include competitions in the water. The Festival
will take place from 13 – 18 June 2008.
