Nexus is an upcoming electronic music festival held at Kyrenia Castle, scheduled for September 18, 2026. Organized by the Serbian company EXIT Festival, the event is a stop on the EXIT World Tour, which specializes in hosting music performances at iconic heritage sites globally. This production marks the brand's debut on the island, modeled after its renowned flagship event at Petrovaradin Fortress.

The lineup features several high-profile international acts, including Swedish producer Eric Prydz and the Italian melodic techno duo Mathame. They are supported by Cairo-based artist Baset and Polish-born producer ANII. The event aims to blend modern electronic music with the historical atmosphere of the castle.

The festival has encountered significant political and conservation-related opposition. Local officials and MEPs have raised concerns regarding the appropriateness of the venue and the potential physical impact of high-decibel sound systems and large crowds on the historical site’s preservation.
