Kefalonia Events - October 2027
October 2027 puts three different sorts of day into the month's last ten: a monastery feast at Omala on the 20th, a saint's day in Lixouri on the 26th and a national holiday with parades on the 28th.
The winter closure ended on 31 March 2027 and nothing is published for the season as a whole — hours come by dated notice. The opening hours page carries the notice in force, which matters more as the year turns.
For what these days are like rather than when they fall, see what Kefalonia's festivals are like.

St Dimitrios — Lixouri
📅 Tuesday 26 October 2027
The fixed feast of St Dimitrios, kept in Lixouri — not the town's patronal day, which is St Charalambos in February, so come in February if the patronal one is what you want.
📍 Location: Lixouri
Watch & Listen
St Gerasimos — the second feast
📅 Wednesday 20 October 2027
Kefalonia keeps its patron twice a year, and October is the quieter of the two — at the monastery where the relics are, rather than in Argostoli.
📍 Location: Holy Monastery of St Gerasimos, Omala

Ochi Day
📅 Thursday 28 October 2027
A national holiday whose parades here are the island's own: both of the main towns turn out, and it is the last big public day before the winter.
📍 Location: Argostoli and Lixouri
