This year, the Epiphany in Aglantzia brings light, tradition, and a festive vibe.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, January 6, 2026, the lake at Saint George Athalassa Park will be the spot for the Blessing of the Waters. It’s a celebration that mixes old traditions with new fun. The day kicks off with Matins, Divine Liturgy, and Great Blessing at the Church of Saint Barbara. Then, there’s a procession to the lake for the traditional Blessing of the Waters at 11:00 a.m.. According to tradition, this is where the goblins gather their things and leave.
The program features Cypriot and Pontic dances, traditional music, and shows like “The Goblins of Cyprus” and “Momogeroi”. This makes for a day that’s not just religious but also full of experiences. And because no celebration is complete without treats, there will be free loukoumades, music, and plenty of space to stroll around — perfect for families, friends, and anyone looking for something more than just a quick visit.
