Travel Secrets

36th International Music Festival of Santorini

36th International Music Festival of Santorini

The month of September could actually prove to be the best month for a getaway in Santorini! The weather is mostly very nice, the Cycladic winds have now calmed down and the island is able to show off its beauty in the best possible way to those who prefer a much quieter approach…

We equally give Santorini a place in our September agenda in order to enjoy the 36th International Music Festival which is held between the 9th and 23th of the current month. 

For our accommodation in Santorini, we can choose between the famous and award-winning Astra Suites at the highest point of the Caldera in Imerovigli village or the unique and arty Voreina Gallery Suites at the medieval settlement of Pyrgos, in the heart of the island. If staying in an exclusive villa seems more appealing, then we select the luxurious The Architects' House located between the settlements of Oia and Imerovigli. 

Below, the full program of the music festival for your information:
