A resounding message echoed from the 37th Antipode A resounding message echoed from the 37th Antipodes Festival: The Parthenon Marbles are an inseparable part of Greece’s soul and must return home! 

Melbourne’s iconic Lonsdale Street came alive as over 100,000 people immersed themselves in a weekend of music, dance, food, and tradition at the largest Hellenic festival in the global diaspora! 

@renamorfi  lit up Saturday night with an electrifying performance, filling the streets with her unique voice and unmatched energy. 

The Xylourides—Antonis, Nikos, and Apollonia—closed the festival in style, delivering a breathtaking Cretan performance that had the crowd singing and dancing till the very end!
