"Turn Back Time... and Relive the Decades We Loved!"

Of course, of course!

For three unforgettable evenings, Sitia's central square is transformed into a giant time machine, taking visitors back to the decades we all loved.

Back to the days when you arranged to meet using the landline, the youngest child in the family was the TV remote, cassette tapes got tangled in the tape player, and television had only two channels!

Music, dancing, games, flavours, exhibitions, memories and plenty of surprises await.

Put on your biggest vintage smile, your wide-collared shirt, shoulder-padded dress, flared jeans or colourful shorts and join us!

FRIDAY, 10 JULY

19:00 – Vintage Games Festival

The games that entertained generations are back!

Hopscotch, blind man's buff, marbles, skipping ropes, elastic jumping and all the neighbourhood favourites that kept children outside until the streetlights came on.

Register, play, have fun and win prizes!

"Mum, I'm just going downstairs to play... I'll be back in five minutes!"

(Just like back then... when we actually came home three hours later!)

20:00 – Grand Vintage Party

The greatest hits from the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s will keep the party going.

SITIA VINTAGE FESTIVAL

Three days without stress... and without notifications.

Just like back then... when the only "story" was what happened in the square yesterday.

The only festival where you'll hear the word "cassette" more often than "application."

The only place where the word "drachma" is still heard, vinyl never died, and disco never ended!

Because...

We're not doing a reboot. We're really going back in time!

Don't miss it!
