Nicosia International Festival... never ends

ΕΝΗΜΕΡΩΣΗ / Nicosia International Festival / Nicosia International Festival... never ends
A dynamic start for 2024 from the Nicosia International Festival... never ends
 
The Nicosia International Festival, implementing the strategy it developed in its bid for the European Capital of Culture title in 2017, continues to build expertise in large-scale cultural activities as well as in contemporary Cypriot and international cultural production. This is why the Nicosia International Festival is a dynamic participant in the bid for the European Capital of Culture - Nicosia 2030.
 
Since April 2023, the institution "the Festival… never ends" has been launched so that the Nicosia International Festival continues to be present in the city and to broadcast its philosophy throughout the year, preparing Nicosia for 2030 full of performances and actions.
 
Nicosia International Festival 2023 may have completed its month-long programme on 29/12/2023, but the closed cycle... in fact... remains open.
