XLSIOR Mykonos Festival 2026

XLSIOR Mykonos is the world's most spectacular gay circuit festival, held each August on the Greek island of Mykonos — the original gay paradise of the Mediterranean. For six days, thousands of gay men from across Europe, the Americas and Asia fill the island for pool parties, beach events, and legendary nightclub spectaculars at Mykonos's world-famous venues.

The island's natural setting — whitewashed Cycladic architecture, the iconic windmills above Hora, turquoise Aegean waters, and the legendary golden beaches of Psarou and Paradise — makes XLSIOR a uniquely beautiful circuit experience. Unlike festival venues in convention centers or warehouses, XLSIOR's parties happen at the actual nightclubs, beach clubs, and hotel pools that define Mykonos nightlife.

XLSIOR has grown steadily since 2011 and now draws 10,000+ attendees from 60+ countries. The combination of the island's natural beauty, its established infrastructure of gay bars and clubs, and the extraordinary Mediterranean summer experience make it the most aspirational event on the circuit calendar.
