Summer is here and its time to turn up the heat!
Its that time of the year when temperatures are high, tourists surge to the beaches to enjoy the sun, enjoy a drink with friends and family but for some summer is time for a good party!
Cyprus, as you all know, is not ashamed to throw a big party and over the past couple of years, the concept of music festivals have become more and more popular amongst the Cypriot crowds.
For many people festivals are a great way to explore new places and immerse yourself in a culture which is not necessarily close to your own. Meeting the locals and participating in the events they organize can be extremely fun and educational.
