A Word from the Festival

As we prepare to welcome you to the 3rd edition of the Syros International Music Festival, I’m proud to introduce this new space on our website — a dedicated news section that brings you closer to the life of the Festival.

Here, we will share more than updates: stories about the artists who shape our program, insights into our local and national partnerships, news about parallel events we organize throughout the year, and practical information on tickets and passes.

The Festival continues to grow thanks to the trust of our audience and the unwavering support of the Municipality of Ermoupolis/Syros and the Region of South Aegean, whom we warmly thank for their ongoing commitment to culture and music.

Stay connected — the Festival lives here, all year long.

— The Executive Director, Syros International Music Festival
