The 56th Dimitria festival is back with a vengeance, after a year marked by confinement, isolation, and loss.

This October finds us together once again to enjoy live performances in the heart of Thessaloniki.

For twenty days, different kinds of art are intertwined in a creative manner within the festival’s venues. More than 150 artists, including award-winning directors, choreographers, musicians, and artists from Greece and abroad, are involved in a discussion and interaction with the public, that desires to get acquainted with their work, to dream, to re-experience the scent of the stage, and taste the living breath of creativity, which we were deprived of for so long.

The breath of performers and the audience interacting with each other, the breath of culture, art, and life curtesy of the 56th Dimitria Festival.

Through its festival, Thessaloniki invites us all to participate in this creative journey.
