Separate events focusing on the sea, history and culture of the city, the Municipality of Piraeus organizes for the 9th year in a row, the “Sea Days 2023” from May 24 – June 4, with the participation and support of the city’s agencies and associations.

The celebration that has become an institution in Piraeus and has been embraced by Piraeus and visitors to the city, with more than 100 free events, includes concerts with popular artists, music and dance performances, boat tours, summer cinema, the blue night for promotion and promotion of the Piraeus trade but also many other educational and sports activities. The opening ceremony of the Sea Days for 2023 will take place on May 23, in the forecourt of the Municipal Theater of Piraeus, with a spectacular event-concert and the participation of many favorite artists and will be dedicated to the Piraeus lyricist Ilias Filippou.

The mayor of Piraeus, Yiannis Moralis, during his greeting at today’s press conference held in the foyer of the Municipal Theater of Piraeus for the presentation of the “Sea Days 2023” program, emphasized, among other things, that the Sea Days started in 2015 to celebrate the European Sea Day in Piraeus and since then and due to the positive results that emerged from that first event, it has continued and is now one of the most successful institutions for the city. “That’s what we wanted. Let it be a celebration for Piraeus. After all, as a “Piraeus winner” combination, we have always said that the future of Piraeus is the sea and we always look towards the sea. And I think we have succeeded. Nine years this year, we are enriching our events, participation is increasing and here I would like to emphasize that the “Sea Days” are actually organized by the city of Piraeus and the municipality manages it. In fact, the mayor did not fail to mention that this year’s Sea Days will be the first in which visitors who are interested in participating in the events will be able to come easily by metro to Piraeus.

For her part, the deputy mayor for Outreach, Tourism and European Programs, Adriana Zarakeli, who presented the “Sea Days 2023” program, emphasized, among other things: “We are very happy again this year for the many events that will take place, with the large participation of the agencies and the participation of all those who will come, citizens of the Municipality of Piraeus as well as visitors to the city. I want to stick to the effort that has been made this year to be flooded with music as much as possible. It is something, after all, that we all need, with fun, with joy, with fun. For this reason, in four different parts of Piraeus, we have planned separate events – concerts and so many other actions for this 10 days”.

The president of the Culture, Sports and Youth Organization of the Municipality of Piraeus, Iosif Vourakis, said in his greeting: “The important part in the success of the organization is not only the actions, but the fact that in previous years we “chased” the organizations to participate, while this year they have started to express their interest very early on and this proves that the Sea Days are an institution not only in formal terms but also in practice. The goal this year is to have even more citizens from other municipalities and because I see the interest that exists through social networking platforms for events in our municipality, we want this big celebration of ours to be a celebration for everyone.”

It is noted that the official website imeresthalassas.gr will post a detailed program in order to inform the interested public about the number of events, their location, their days and times.
