2. To propose a wide range of cultural and artistic expression with the aim of bringing citizens into contact with internationally reputable artists and cultural organisations.
3. To propose cultural activities that promote acceptance and inclusion regardless of nationality, age, gender, colour, religion, sexual orientation, etc.

With a backdrop of a huge book , which unfolds to reveal the stories, the performance takes us on a journey through the three cultures in a unique way, combining actors, modern puppetry techniques, storytelling and audiovisual magic.

The morals, traditions and culture of each country unfold before us, through wise and everyday characters, creating a world full of wisdom, humor, courage, love, boldness and kindness.

A performance that reminds us that every people has their own stories, but deep down we are all looking for the same thing…

The post Once upon a time… one country: A unique theatrical experience that unites three cultures on stage! – Λάρνακα: 18.1.2026 appeared first on Visit Cyprus.

As one of the very few ultra races on the island, and likely the only one that lasts this long in both distance and time, CBU stands out as a unique test of human endurance.

Race Format:

– Runners start together and must complete a 6.706-kilometer loop within one hour.
– Those who finish early must wait at the start line until the next loop begins.
–   No breaks or outside assistance are allowed during the loop, rest is only permitted between loops.
–  As the race progresses, each loop becomes a grueling test of physical stamina and mental resilience.
– The event continues until only one runner remains.

The Challenge:

With no set finish line, the Cyprus Backyard Ultra is a true battle of pacing, recovery, and sheer determination. The last runner standing after all others have DNF’d (Did Not Finish) is crowned the winner.

Set against the stunning landscape of Oroklini, Larnaca, which combines breathtaking views of the sea from a hill, this race is not just about endurance, it’s about camaraderie, pushing boundaries, and creating memories that last a lifetime.
