Hello RethymnoHello RethymnoThe most reliable source for current Rethymno events is the Municipality of Rethymno cultural agenda, which lists concerts, exhibitions and festivals as they are confirmed. The district's flagship summer event is the Renaissance Festival in the Erofili open air theatre inside the Fortezza, running in the second half of August (around 17 to 30 August in 2026). Through summer, villages across the district hold panigyria (saint's day feasts) with music and food, while winter centres on Carnival in late February or March. Check the municipal agenda a few days ahead, since exact dates and venues shift each year.
