The festival will take place at Korakou village for the second time on the 2nd of June 2018. The reason that this festival is organized is to revival and spread our village tradition to young and older people as well.
During the festival, the visitors will have the opportunity to watch the art of kneading and the preparation of halloumi cheese made by experienced volunteers housemaids. There will be a presentation of the whole procedure of kneading and the products resulting therefrom (as breads, pies, homemade pasta, buns etc). Furthermore, expert technicians will present the necessary tools needed for kneading and how these are made.
The visitors, beyond tasting, will have the chance to get involved into the whole procedure. Those who wish to try, will make pies with the traditional way and decorate their own breads, following the instructions of expert housemaids. The technicians providing the art of kneading and the necessary tools, will guide the visitors who wish to get involved in manufacturing these tools.
The festival will be enriched with traditional Cyprus dancing programs by traditional dance groups. The traditional feast will follow with traditional music, dance and food.
