Cyprus has been a popular holiday destination for many years with tourist numbers continuing to grow. It鈥檚 easy to see why this Mediterranean island is a firm favourite; an abundance of sandy beaches, stunning scenery and historical sights along with a buzzing nightlife make this the ideal destination for over 2.4 million visitors each year.
Increasing tourist numbers are matched by the ever expanding variety of festivals, carnivals and activities taking place in Cyprus, including Limassol鈥檚 beer festival.
Nestled beneath the magnificent Troodos Mountains the south coast town of Limassol has a population of around 225,000, making it the second largest town in Cyprus and one renowned for its festivals. Annual drama, wine and flower festivals mean there is always something on the calendar to suit everyone, but for beer lovers there is something extra special.
Growing massively in popularity since its introduction in 2003, the three day Limassol beer festival takes place on the oceans edge in the Molos area, located in the heart of the traditional town centre. Visitors can enjoy the festival’s wide offering of the best local and imported beers including KEO, Budweiser, Leffe and Hoegaarden plus many more. Affordably priced beer and free entrance to the beer festival means visitors have more Euros to spend on sampling some of the world鈥檚 finest brews.
