We went last year and it was great, it occures in early July but not sure if its on every year, I suspect it is.

There was some sort of festival last year when we were there that was 19th June
-
I agree the festival last year was during the last 2 weeeks in June.I was there and I believe the 19th of June is just about right.

Remember it well Yiannis the field was a bit bumpy but the smell of the meat roasting and the music and dancing was great it was our last night before we flew home that's how I remembered the date
-
I think I had a great night at the festival.I say think because it was the night my Corfiot so called friends introduced me to Retsina.An introduction never to be repeated.We travelled down from the Romanza in the back of Leos pickup.Not certain how we got back.

The Arillas party is in July. It's held at the brewery on the top of the ridge between Agios Stephanos and Arillas. Very good fun!

We are staying at the Romanza the same two weeks as last year(9July/23July) there was a festival the second week of our holiday, and has been mentioned earlier got a lift in the back of Leo`s pick-up, if memory serves me right i think it was something to do with a naming day. Like everyone says i hope there is one again this year. :)

Is there usually a wine festival as well in September?
-
6 weeks today and we will be on our way :)
-
the festival was last night - great music. The wine fest. is/was in Arillas last month. Maybe they will have another soon
-
The band was v. good, we didn't get there until 11:30 or so as went down with Pippina and Dimitri but they played on non stop, apart from a small problem with the power, until we left at the back of one. Dimitri said there will be another one in August, haven't got the date yet.
