In July, the Folegandros Festival hosts a number of events in Kastro, Karavostasis, and Ano Meria, including screenings, theater, and concerts featuring Greek or classical museum. Thematic exhibits are organized in the neoclassical Elementary School building throughout the summer.
The island's Easter celebrations are unique as the Panayia's icon removed from the monastery and taken in procession from home to home in a celebratory mood marked by songs and fireworks; the icon is welcomed with wine, raki, and sweets. On Easter Sunday, the icon is taken in procession around Hora and Kastro, where it's welcomed with fireworks. On Easter Monday, the icon is then taken to Ano Meria and farmhouses, while at Karavostasis it is also taken to bless fishing boats and any yachts docked there. That night, it's returned to the monastery, where it remains until the following Easter.
