Festival of Stavros
A great festival is the one held for the Exaltation of the Holy Cross at the church of Timios Stavros in the village of Stavros. On the eve day of September 14, women and children decorate with flowers the church and men bring the bread from the bakery. A vesper takes place in the church, and soon after, bread and wine are served alongside the traditional “patatato” (cooked meat with potatoes) in the churchyard. The feast goes on at the port, where people dance to the rhythm of the violin and other traditional instruments. Locals mix with people from the surrounding islands who come by boats for the festival, as well as with lots of tourists who stumble on this celebration. The feast lasts until the early morning hours. It is a unique experience that you should not miss, if you find yourself in Donousa during that period.
