On behalf of Greece’s largest tango festival, Thessaloniki Tango Party Festival, we extend our profound gratitude to Thessaloniki Music School for its exceptional honor and unwavering support under its patronage for the second consecutive year. This prestigious endorsement highlights the symbiotic relationship between the festival and one of the city’s most esteemed institutions dedicated to music education.
Established in June 1992, Thessaloniki Music School began its journey within the Papafeio Foundation with just two classes of first-year secondary school students, selected from 46 applicants. Despite its modest beginnings, the school rapidly grew in stature, evolving into a celebrated institution renowned for its commitment to musical excellence and its vital contribution to Thessaloniki's cultural landscape.
The ongoing patronage of Thessaloniki Music School underscores the festival’s role in enhancing the city’s rich cultural environment. This support not only affirms the festival’s significance but also reinforces our shared mission to promote and celebrate the arts.
Pavlos Mavromatis and Spiros Alexiou, Festival Directors, expressed heartfelt appreciation for the continued support from Thessaloniki Music School. “We are deeply honored to receive the steadfast patronage of Thessaloniki Music School for the second year in a row. This recognition not only acknowledges our efforts to celebrate tango culture but also strengthens our collaborative bond with an institution that has significantly shaped Thessaloniki’s musical and cultural heritage. We look forward to another successful festival and to continuing our partnership with such a prestigious institution.”
Thessaloniki Tango Party Festival, scheduled from August 22 to 25, 2024, will once again illuminate the city with the art of tango and its culture. The festival will feature a rich array of workshops, performances, and social dances, set against the backdrop of Thessaloniki’s vibrant cultural scene.
