Rokka Revival: Cultural Events Breathe Life into the Village

Rokka, a semi-mountainous village in Kissamos, Chania, is nestled on the southern slope of an imposing high rock that commands the surrounding area. Positioned at an altitude of 210 metres, it is situated 15 kilometres from Kastelli and 35 kilometres from the city of Chania.

In 2013, Rokka village experienced a revival with the Rokka Festivals, hosting a series of musical, theatrical, visual arts events, and various educational activities during the summer.

The village square and its café, the arches of abandoned houses, and the warm hospitality of the residents, who generously share their traditional cuisine, create a unique and inviting atmosphere.

The proud archaeological site of Rokka in Kissamos, combined with the ambiance of spectators enjoying events accompanied by music under the light of the full moon, renders this experience truly unforgettable.
