Road closures will be in effect in Chania on Sunday, May 3, 2026, due to the 16th Historical Circuit, a vintage and classic car racing event held annually in the city. Certain streets in Chania will be temporarily closed to regular traffic for the duration of the race. Tourists staying in or planning to visit Chania that day should expect delays and detours in affected areas, particularly around the race route. It is advisable to check local signage, ask your accommodation for updated route information, and allow extra travel time if driving or taking a taxi. The Historical Circuit is also a popular spectator event, drawing crowds interested in classic motorsport, so attending as a visitor is an option if you are in the area on that date.
