In the Municipal apartment of Rodopou, every year on August 28th the eve of Saint John's day in the location of "Giona", evening prayer is realised in a picturesque chapel, which is 15km from the village towards cape Spatha. It is noteworthy to say that with the presence of many priests there are many group baptisms, as well as night liturgy. The attendance of the pilgrims begins early in the morning, until sunrise of the next day.
Along with the liturgies there is also a traditional feast with Cretan music. Visitors can enjoy the traditional dishes in the outdoor taverns.
On August 29th the football club of Rodopou closes the celebrational two-day with the organization of a fair in the village square. The good wine, plenty of dishes and Cretan Music from well-known artists call every visitor to enjoy themselves until the early morning hours.
