 “Reborn of the Phoenix” Festival invites you to step away from the usual format, where audiences gather at a single venue. This is a festival where, for one evening, the entire village will become a place of celebration, music, surprises, and small discoveries. Instead of a single stage, you’ll embark on a journey where every new turn reveals a new chapter in the story.

The route begins at the Gates of Arodes. From there, the path offers many options. Some will head straight to the Tree of Wishes to tie a ribbon to its branches and reflect on what matters most. Others will choose the path through the House of the Enamored Nymph, the Hospitallers’ Apothecary, or the Crusaders’ Stone. Others will simply let their curiosity guide them without consulting a map.

 You don’t have to see everything here. Here, you can take your time and choose: attend a medieval dance workshop, visit the archers, marvel at a fire show, or get inspired by a mosaic workshop. By the old spring, music, water, and mysterious characters will create an atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer. Circus performers, an open-air movie theater, and a host of other experiences await the children. Adults will have the opportunity to sample local cuisine and learn more about the legends of this region. And at one of the turns along the route, you can take home the scent of Arodes.

 You can watch the sunset at Astro Park with a locally sourced glass of wine in your hand. Tribal music will fill the air, and ecstatic dancing will begin. After a packed day of activities, you’ll want to just stay here - listen to the music, watch the first stars come out, and take your time.
