The On The Plain Festival 2026 returns to Skines, in the Chania region of western Crete, on July 8 and 9. The two-day event is dedicated to cinema and takes place at the Periigitiki Leschi Skine, located at Eparchial Road Sougias-Skine 19, Skines Chania. This outdoor cultural festival is a recurring summer event that draws both locals and visitors looking for an authentic community experience away from the main tourist centres. Skines is a quiet village roughly 25 kilometres south of Chania city, accessible by car via the Sougias provincial road. Visitors staying in Chania can make a day or evening trip out to attend. Specific programme details, screening times, and ticket information were not included in the available announcement, so checking local listings closer to the dates is recommended.
