Eressos Women’s Festival is on its way again, following on yet another successful festival in 2006. Come to Sappho’s birthplace and join us in our two week celebration of women, music, spirituality and the arts. Sappho Travel will build on the success and experience of previous festivals to offer a varied and balanced programme reflecting the diverse interests of all women.

This festival is a celebration of YOU, and however you enjoy spending your time there will be something here for you. Events will include traditional parties and women only trips and boat cruises, musical dance and theatrical performances, open mike sessions, sports events and competitions, art workshops and exhibitions, meditation and spirituality demonstrations and workshops as well as pampering and healing alternative and traditional therapies.

Please bring your own words or songs, as you will have opportunities to share your talents skills and experiences with other women, including the community of artists and healers living and working in Eressos.

You can find booking and other information, including pictures and details of previous festivals as well as this year’s programme at www.womensfestival.eu

Venues throughout Skala will be providing space to holistic therapists, to performing artists such as singers, dancers, musicians, and to creative artists including photographers, poets and painters. If you wish to perform or to exhibit your work, or wish to organize a creative workshop, a meditation session or a demonstration, Skala Eressos is your host.

We are still looking for artists, performers and participants, including volunteers so if you are interested in playing a part in this year’s festival please email us at womensfestival@sapphotravel.com with your ideas or offerings. We look forward to hearing from you, and to seeing you in September.
