Naxos Festival | Naxos and the Small Cyclades

Naxos Festival

The Festival started in 2001 with the aim to encourage the contact of local people and Naxos Island visitors with the diachronic and contemporary cultural artistic activity. Naxos Festival is nowadays a platform for intercultural meetings (Greek and from abroad) including art exhibitions, music, theatre, dance performances and many others cultural activities.

The festival events take place from June to September mainly at Bazeos Tower, a 17th century monument which predominantly overlooks the Naxian mainland, in an environment that encompasses and inspires both the events and the audience. Through the coexistence of international artists with modern artistic currents, the Naxos Festival becomes a point for multicultural meetings and special productions, revealing Naxos island a perfect place for vacation, with a regenerating cultural atmosphere.
