The city is well-known for hosting the International Film and Documentary Festivals, the Biennale of Photography and Modern Art, and the Gastronomy Festival.
Music, drama, dance come alive on stage at the Concert Hall, the State Theatre of Northern Greece and the tens of young artistic group meeting places scattered around town.
A day in the city of young artists
Don’t forget to taste the sweet or savoury filling of the hand-made bougatsa pastries with your morning coffee, during your walk along Tsimiski, the central commercial street, or the covered markets of Modiano and Kapani.
Find information about restaurants, taverns and grill houses and enjoy the rich Mediterranean, Eastern and international flavours. Ask passers-by at Aristotelous square, when cycling in the early evening along the seafront, or at the clubs on Valaoritou Street and the Ladadika (Old Oil Market) District. They will soon show you how easily Thessaloniki offers unforgettable experiences one should not miss out on!
