Preparations for the Fengaros Festival in Cyprus are stopped. Organizers said this on Tuesday. They are waiting for clear information from the Deputy Ministry of Culture. There is no clear plan for state money in 2026. This stops the main festival and other programs.
Fengaros Festival started in 2011. It is a big music and art event in Cyprus. It usually happens in early August. Now, things are uncertain. Festival organizers have asked the Ministry for help. They want to know about support for next year. However, they have not received a reply. The Ministry has not announced funding plans. This makes planning very difficult.
The lack of money causes big problems. Organizers cannot plan important things. They need to book artists and pay them. They also need to arrange travel and hotels. All this needs financial support. Fengaros said on social media, "Our activities are on hold." They need a formal statement and timeline for 2026 money.
The festival's social media also said, "We cannot talk to artists and partners." This is because they need clear information. This uncertainty affects many people. It can impact artist availability. The next few weeks are important. They will show if Fengaros can continue its work.
