The regeneration of Hellinikon is a landmark project for the country, inspired by the vision of a new way of life for all citizens where culture and the arts play a dominant role. Serving this vision and mission, The Ellinikon enters into a strategic partnership with the Athens Epidaurus Festival, which in its long history has established itself as a pillar of culture in Greece and internationally. The Festival, one of the most historic in Europe, has hosted the most important creators and artists of Music, Dance and Theater of the Greek and international scene, attracting thousands of spectators from all over the world.
The Athens Epidaurus Festival, held this year from June 1st to August 20th, offers a unique program of prestigious artistic events. For the first time, The Ellinikon Experience Park will host artistic activities of the Athens Epidaurus Festival.
In particular, dance lovers will enjoy on Thursday, July 28 “The Big Cypher”, a different dance performance, curated by Ilias Hatzigeorgiou (dancer, choreographer and Festival Dance consultant), where professional hip hop & street dancers stage dance will meet in a ‘battle’, i.e. a “dance duel” which will juggle between improvisation, performance and play. Accordingly, jazz lovers will enjoy on Friday, July 29, a unique musical evening, with the jazz sextet of Nikos Hatjitsakos, edited by the well-known saxophonist and composer Dimitris Tsakas. Entry to both events will be free, and more details will be announced soon.
Melina Paizi, Chief Development and Investment Portfolio Officer, LAMDA Development, said: “We are particularly happy for our collaboration with a historic and emblematic institution such as the Athens Epidaurus Festival, honoring in this way the important work it has accomplished in 67 years of its presence. The continuous support of culture and the arts is a priority for us at Lamda Development and The Ellinikon and through this collaboration we aspire to offer our fellow citizens the joy of contact with art with events open and free for all” .
Katerina Evagelatou, Artistic Director of the Athens Epidaurus Festival added: “We are very happy that the Festival joins forces with The Ellinikon and “goes out” to the sea, with two explosive events that are specially designed for outdoor spaces. It is an excellent opportunity to strengthen our extroversion and to bring audiences of all ages into contact with young and established artists, but also with the Festival itself, highlighting its contribution to the international cultural scene.”
