The 5th Aegean Festival will be held in the Municipal Theatre Apollo in Ermoupolis Syros this year, from July 1st to 11th. Greek and foreign artists will take part in the events that will include opera, concerts of classical music, dance, theatre performances and educational activities. The theatre of Syros, one of the first theatre of the new Greek State, built in 1864 having Scala di Milan as a model, provides a great place to host these events.
