The story

Potamitissa Zivania Festival in Potamitissa

Potamitissa, a small Pitsilia village known for cured meats, offers zivania to visitors as one hospitality item during its general annual summer festival on the first Saturday after the Assumption, alongside separately branded Palouze and Sausage festivals in September. Available evidence does not confirm a standalone Zivania Festival structured like the dedicated distillation-focused events at Pelendri and Alona.

Potamitissa, a small Pitsilia settlement of around sixty residents built at 850 metres and known for traditional cured meats, hosts an annual village festival on the first Saturday after the Assumption each summer, and available research indicates zivania is genuinely offered to visitors at this gathering, alongside local cold cuts, homemade sweets, palouze and soutzoukko, rather than the village running a separately branded, dedicated Zivania Festival distinct from its own general annual celebration.
