The story
Nicosia Beer Fest in Nicosia
Nicosia Beer Fest, historically staged at the Venetian-era Famagusta Gate each September, is billed as the biggest beer festival on the island. Nicosia's craft beer calendar has grown crowded with several related but separately organised events, including an Old Town Craft Beer Fest in May, Septemberfest, and a Hoppy October Street Fest, so confirming which specific event is meant is worthwhile before planning a visit.
Famagusta Gate, one of the best-preserved Venetian-era fortification gates surviving in Nicosia's old town, hosts the Nicosia Beer Fest each September, an event billed as the biggest beer festival on the island and drawing a genuinely broad crowd alongside numerous performing artists across its programme.
