Limassol Pride 2026

Limassol Pride, Cyprus's biggest LGBTQ+ event, happens every June. Ten years ago, it was a small march. Now it's a multi-day festival, drawing people from across Cyprus, Greece, Israel, and further out.

The 2026 edition runs for five days in the third week of June. The main street parade, on Saturday, cuts through the old town, then down to the seafront. It ends with a rally by the water. Over five thousand people showed up recently.

Besides the parade, there are beach parties at Governor's Beach. Sousami Bar and Zester Bar host drag and variety shows. You'll find an LGBTQ+ film program, plus panel discussions and community events put on by Accept-LGBT Cyprus. A closing party wraps things up Sunday night.

Hotels in Limassol book up fast around Pride. Try to reserve three to four months ahead. The Four Seasons, on the tourist strip, and the old town's boutique hotels are the hardest to get.
