Stavros Panighiri Day 1 2017 Summer Festival on Ithaca Greece. Greek Island Holidays

After the Exoghi and Kioni Festivals being quite alot quieter than usual, it was a surprise to see Stavros absolutely packed to the rafters, at least around the area of the village square which spread to encompass Tselegas down to Margarita Cafe.

The first night is usually the busiest, but this year all the children who have grown up now, are occupying the dance floor and making the 'Kefi'. A whole new generation of of Panaghiri goers. It's a noticeable change-over.
