What MEDFEST 2026 was like

MEDFEST packed in dozens of craft-beer taps from local and regional breweries alongside imported European and international labels. Entry used a token wristband exchanged for beer at the taps — cashless inside.

Evening sessions ran from roughly 18:00 until midnight. Live music and DJ sets filled the main stage at Linopetra High School Stadium, with Greek acts headlining the weekend nights (Locomondo on Saturday, Christos Mastoras & MELISSES closing on Sunday). Food vendors covered souvlaki, burgers and Mediterranean snacks.

  • On the busiest nights (Friday, Saturday), queues built at the gate and popular taps sold out by mid-evening.
  • The festival was cashless inside for beer tokens — a bank card was needed at entry.
  • Parking around Linopetra was limited on peak nights; most visitors used a taxi or rideshare.
  • The festival area was mostly hard standing, but comfortable shoes still helped for a full evening on foot.

Getting to MEDFEST

Linopetra High School Stadium is a short taxi ride from Limassol centre and Limassol Marina. Public bus service in the evening is limited — most visitors taxi in.

If staying in Paphos or Larnaca, MEDFEST is worth a day trip for the next edition: the drive is under an hour from either city.
