In the area of the municipal refreshment hall, within a green area larger than 150 acres, takes place every summer, in the last week of July, the meeting of youth from the entire country as well as the Balkans, one of the most popular musical festivals in Greece and beyond. Five days full of music, next to the river. Apart from concerts by famous artists of the Greek music scene, parallel events take place, such as screenings, presentations, exhibitions as well as athletic events, theatrical performances, volunteers’ activities, eco-tourism excursions and many other similar events. “Young” people of all ages meet and camp by the “river of culture”, from where, guided by music and several other parallel activities, they send out the message of peaceful coexistence. 3
