Yalla Collective Space & Cafe will celebrate its first anniversary with an eight-hour event featuring vegan cuisine, children’s activities and a DJ set on Saturday, February 22nd.
The event, running from 16:00 to midnight, will celebrate the venue’s evolution over the past year.
“One year of experimenting, creating, meeting and building something together. A year of proving that a collective space like this can exist, with your support,” the organisers said in a post on Facebook.
The event’s culinary offerings include vegan oyster mushroom herbal gyros served in pitta bread, homemade mayonnaise and fresh greens, and vegetable noodles. A special cocktail, the “Yalla Spritz”, featuring Aperol and sparkling wine, has been created for the occasion.
The programme includes an interactive reading of “Ms Al and Mr Ka” by author Elena Hadjipetrou at 17:00, designed for children but open to all ages. DJ Mighty Scoop will perform from 20:00 to 23:30.
“This past year has been a wild ride and we’re here because of the energy, care and support you’ve given. Yalla is not just a café, not just a space; it’s all of us. If you love what we do, keep showing up, keep spreading the word and let’s keep this going together,” the organisers said.
Location: Perikleous 16, Nicosia, 1010
