Paros Festival 2023

The Paros Festival takes place from 14-16 July, inviting guests to discover the diverse culture of the island and its people. 

This year’s event (the 6th) focuses on the sea, addressing issues such as insularity and the influence of seamanship on our lives in relation to the developments on the environment around us.

The three-day event includes music, architecture, literature, arts and crafts and an assortment of other religious or other traditions. Concerts, exhibitions, screenings, discussions, lectures, guided tours, educational programs for children and adults, workshops with local craftsmen and a manifold of other participatory events aim to highlight the unseen side of the island and its untold stories.

Paros Festival focuses on the old town of Parikia, which is dominated by the Frankish Castle. Yet it reflects the island's culture as a whole. It is an initiative of a group of volunteers living on the island and it aims at engaging the local community in the management and the promotion of their cultural heritage.
