The first banners advertising the summer festivals, the panigiria, have been spotted again, signalling the start of the Kythirian summer. Kato Livadi is this year’s kick-off: Sunday, July 24th, from 9pm onwards with live music, dance, food and drinks. Don’t miss it because it’s great fun to dance the Karavitikos, the Chaniotikos or the Kalamatianos together with enthusiastic Greek islanders. Many other villages will follow: the program is not yet complete, but you can already note these dates in your diary: August 6 ^th Avlemonas Filoxenos Dance, August 13^th Mitata Wine Festival, August 15^th Potamos Panigiri Dance, August 20^th Fratsia Excibition/Dance, September 15th Kalamos Dance, and September 24 ^th Agia Pelagia Dance.
