A Traditional folklore music and dancing festival.
It has been established since four years and it will always be taking place on the first weekend of every August at the olive-grove between the Kaptains Taverna and Brouklis taverna.
Last evening there was a great success as more that 2000 local people came to Arillas to from all the other villages to watch the the Musicians and dancers from the Greek-speaking community of Southern Italy as well as to have the honor to dance by the music of George Tryfonas.

Next stop .... the wine festival in September
STAY TUNED.!!

I can't believe I've not been to a festival yet - always timed it wrong. Maybe next year.
