Ancient Theatre of Philippi
Friday, 30th August, at 21.00
The much-loved performers Eleftheria Arvanitaki and Eleni Zouganeli, who took the stage by storm last summer, stirring waves of joy and excitement wherever they performed, are coming to the Ancient Theatre of Philippi on Friday, 30th August at 21:00, as part of the 67th Philippi Festival.
Eleftheria Arvanitaki’s aura and strength lie in her role as the face of some of the most successful live performances in the history of Greek concerts, and in the timeless repertoire that we all love to sing along to. The explosive temperament of Eleonora Zouganeli, combined with her wide range of hits, rightfully places her among the top performers of the younger generation.
Their on-stage collaboration was hailed as the partnership of the year, and rightly so, as both singers are significant figures in Greek music and hold a special place in the hearts of their fans. Their joint performances under the title “Together” became the musical event of the past seasons, from the repeated sold-out shows at the VOX music stage in Athens to their massive success in the summer of 2023.
The overwhelming support from fans who follow and celebrate them at every appearance has led Eleftheria Arvanitaki and Eleonora Zouganeli to repeat their highly successful tour, this time adding new cities in Greece and Cyprus where they didn’t perform last year.
The meeting of Eleftheria Arvanitaki with Eleonora Zouganeli is a collaboration that delights both the artists themselves and the audience, who never tire of seeing these two charismatic women complement and energise each other, as well as the crowd.
Eleftheria draws musical treasures from her rich discography, while their programme blends “entechno” with “laiko”, balancing deep emotion with an irresistible urge to dance and revel. The chemistry shared by the two performers creates an explosive cocktail that people never tire of pairing with their summers.
