Nikos Oikonomopoulos — Live at Cabana Mare

The biggest laïko draw in Greece, marking twenty years, on the sand at Agia Marina. Doors 20:00.

If you only catch one Greek concert while you are here, this is the one with the best chance of showing you what a Greek crowd actually does with a song it loves. Oikonomopoulos is marking twenty years and can hold a field of several thousand people singing every word back at him, which is not an exaggeration but a fairly ordinary night at one of his shows. Doors are at 20:00, and this being a beach club the show itself starts considerably later, so plan on a long evening. Entry is by phone reservation only, on +30 6946722406 or +30 6986995095. This one will fill, so do not leave it to the day. Note that a Facebook event circulating with a 13 August date is from a previous year: the venue's own page says Sunday 9 August.
