The Greek National Tourism Organisation (GNTO) has placed under its auspices a series of gastronomy, cultural and sports events that promote Greece as top destination in special forms of tourism.
The first event is the 3rd Lesvos Food Festival that will be held from on July 2-7 in several parts of the island, giving visitors the opportunity to experience a series of gastronomy events and discover the locally produced foods and gastronomy.
The cultural happening “the rocks speak” will be presented in several different venues in Athens in July, September and October, a theatrical performance based on texts deriving from the Ancient Greek literature that will be held every Friday, Saturday and Sunday in selected archaeological sites and museums in Athens. The performances will last two hours and will be available in three languages (Greek, English and French) while entrance will be free of charge.
Finally, the European Windsurf slalom championships will be held in Pounta on the island of Paros with the participation of approximately 100 athletes aged 15 to 65. The competition is included in the IFCA calendar for 2019.
