Music lovers in Paphos are in for a treat with the casalQuartet set to perform at the Markideio Theatre on April 12, showcasing classical masterpieces from Mozart to Gershwin. Tickets are priced at €20 for an enchanting evening of strings and musical excellence you won’t want to miss.
Paphos shines on the international stage at the ITB Berlin International Tourism Exhibition, showcasing diverse attractions beyond summer to attract sports enthusiasts, ecotourists, and older travelers. Strategic efforts by the Paphos Regional Board and local hoteliers aim to extend the visiting season, promote outdoor activities, and foster partnerships for a yearround influx of visitors.
Welfare offices in Paphos were vandalized, causing substantial damage estimated at €1,400. The police are currently investigating the motive behind the breakin and searching for the perpetrators, while maintaining a vigilant presence at the site. Meanwhile, the local federation representing employers and industrialists has expressed opposition to proposals suggesting a reduction in the operating hours of shops, highlighting the positive impact of extended hours on employment and investment in the retail sector. Critics, however, raise concerns about the potential impact on smaller businesses. The federation argues that Cyprus’ high retail density demonstrates the vitality of flexible shop hours in catering to consumer needs and choices.
