Festival

The name of Deryneia has been linked with the cultivation of strawberries, with the first plantation being cultivated in the village of Deryneia 55 years ago by the farmer Mitsio Yiannouko. Even though the 70% of the area has been occupied by the Turks since 1974, Deryneia still has the first place in the cultivation of strawberries. This is shown through the events of the Strawberry Festival, which have been held in the municipality since 1999.

The Limassol Wine Festival is organised every year during the  beginning of September from 7 until 12 every night.

During the celebration visitors have the opportunity to taste some of Cyprus’ finest wines. There are also traditional dances and songs by various dancing groups and choirs from Cyprus as well as abroad.
