A Festival in Samothrace is a four-day, multidisciplinary cultural festival that takes place each year in Samothrace. It is the only spring festival in Northern Greece, and it covers the entire spectrum of creative expression: theater, music, dance, cinema, photography, circus, and educational workshops for adults and children. Through its residency programs, the festival invites artists to create works in-situ. In this way, the cultural memory and the identity of the island are highlighted through art. The artists interact with the permanent residents, engage in dialogue and become part of the everyday, local life. The festival’s team aims to give space to emerging artists to express new ideas, and to create bonds between this secluded area of Greece and the metropolis.
