NEW YORK – Although summer is already here, many people (myself included) have yet to embark on their summer vacation in Greece. If that’s the case, and you also love music, why not plan ahead and catch some of your favorite Greek or Cypriot artists who are hitting the stage?
For me personally, there’s nothing like being with all your favorite people, on your favorite island, singing your favorite songs while watching some of Greece’s most beloved artists in concert.
To add to the fun of your summer vacation, here’s a list of singers you can still catch performing across cities and islands in Greece and Cyprus. From laiko and pop, to rap and upbeat classics, there’s something and someone for everyone to enjoy.
