“Greece, Festival, Flavours” is a multilevel event, whose main objective is to showcase Greek food products (primary or processed) with the established quality as their common trait. To achieve this goal, it brings together the best small Greek producers in the atmospheric space of the Technopolis and gives visitors the opportunity to get to know them and to taste and buy their select products.
“Greece, Festival, Flavours” is a celebration during which the Greek taste reality meets the intellectual culture through a range of events (music, theatrical happenings, visual interventions, etc.). In the context of a discreet coexistence -with taste being in the spotlight- visitors participate in a grand celebration with quality features that derive from the contemporary creative developments of Greece.

Taste Events

One of the most important elements of the Festival is the program of parallel taste-related events, which showcase the quality products, the wealth of flavours, their peculiarities, history, and distinct identity. The warm response of the public and taste professionals to the relevant events that have been organized by Athinorama in the context of other festivals confirms the particular importance of joy and sharing knowledge and enjoyment and establishes these parallel happenings as a major cultural event.
This year also the taste events will take place at the outdoor area of the Technopolis -where an open kitchen will be set up- and will be accessible to all guests at no extra charge.
