What it is

Mykonos Biennale explained

An artist-run biennale of installations, film screenings and performance in old-town chapels, windmills and abandoned quarries — deliberately free and non-commercial.

Dates can shift by a day or two when a local council moves the programme to a weekend, so confirm with the town hall before booking non-refundable travel. Accommodation in Mykonos tends to sell out weeks ahead of the festival and prices rise sharply on the main night.
