WHAT’S ON | AUGUST

Elefsina welcomes the last month of summer with a series of events and valuable partnerships!

The events begin on August 2nd with the Sacred Songs, this time in Magoula, introducing the traditions and dances of the summer, edited by Lambros Liavas and with the participation of great artists of traditional music. At the end of August, and in co-organization with the Aeschylia Festival, a set of actions and events takes place bringing this annual cultural institution of Elefsina “out of limits” for the first time.

This special edition of the Festival spreads this year throughout the city, starting on August 27, at the Archaeological site of Elefsina with the concert of Maria Faradouri and Manolis Mitsias. The evening opens with Eleusinian Emilios Bartzis together with Margarita Kolasi, in a violin and piano recital, selected by 2023 Eleusis. In the same context, on August 30 & 31, Argyro Chioti directs a special theatrical performance in Vlycha based on a text by Efthimis Filippou. Performed by Angeliki Papoulia and The Boy.

Do not miss Amoli in August (27/08), an action for the importance of agricultural cultivation in Elefsina, with the support of the Municipality of Aspropyrgos. At the same time, the flagship art exhibition Elefsina Mon Amour, curated by Katerina Gregos, continues, with the participation of 16 international artists, while residents and visitors can tour the city discovering a series of art works in the public space, by important artists, such as Eleftheria Deco, Hara Piperidou, Elena Dimitra Handzis and the Beforelight Visual Lighting Group, etc.
