Entertainment
Kassandra is famous for the entertainment it offers, during the summer months, to all those who visit it. Here the fun never seems to stop! The mood starts to rise early in the morning on the beaches and beach bars, which know how to create the right atmosphere so that each visitor can enjoy the sun and the sea as best as possible. When the evening arrives, enjoy a wonderful dinner in one of the many restaurants of Hersonissos overlooking the sea or the mountain. After the meal, relax with a drink in one of the many cafe-bars that exist in all the villages, having fun with various musical listenings and genres from jazz, pop, rock to Greek music depending on the time and mood.
Culture

Counting 25 years of life, it has hosted internationally renowned artists such as Ray Charles, BB King, Joanne Baese and Greek artists such as Dimitris Sgouros, Evanthia Reboutsika, Charoula Alexiou, Alkisti Protopsalti and dozens of other artists who give this cultural Institution.

The Festival opens its gates in July and traditionally ends at the end of August. It takes place in the Amphitheater of Siviri, with a capacity of 3500 seats. It is the jewel of the area that every year welcomes thousands of "fans" who watch it with dedication.
