FESTIVITY

Throughout the year, but even more so in the summertime, local people volunteer to organize night-long festivals and fairs, where locals and visitors celebrate together several religious holidays. The festivals go on till sunrise, and are accompanied by live music, hearty local food, abundant Ikarian wine, and non-stop dancing! Ikariots are very sociable and friendly people, making visitors’ feel welcome with their heartfelt ways, embracing them in an atmosphere of hospitality and generosity of spirit and encouraging them to dance and enjoy themselves the Ikarian way. Have the time of your life at Ikaria’s joyful festivities ‘’Panigiria’’!
