February 9, 2026

The area of the former Larnaca oil refineries is undergoing development, despite some delays. The Municipality of Larnaca is pushing for the acceleration of public works and the establishment of a €30 million Art Center. The goal is to complete the center by 2029, ahead of Larnaca being named the Cultural Capital of Europe. A study is being conducted for the coastal zone that will include public beaches and promenades. The aim of these initiatives is to enhance public access and the quality of public space.
