·Ionian Independence Day, May 21
After centuries of scattershot foreign rule, the Ionian islands once again became part of the country of Greece. Parades, festivals, and a solemn ceremony – often headed by the Greek Prime Minister – mark this milestone in Greek history.

I don't know what the festival was for other than it seemed a local one but we were in San Stef about 3 years ago when they held one. It was situated in the field by the tennis courts. There was a lamb/hog roast and live greek music and dancing. There was a bar and everyone, locals and holidaymakers were having a great time. It was either the last week of june or first in july. We have been at the same time for 9 years and only seen this once.

Hi All
Yes I agree - Spit Roast Lamb in Corfu is the best - but will it be on ??

Hi Bob - looks like you will be there at the same time as us.
We are staying at the Thomas Bay this time - We hope to be eating at the Sunset on a Saturday Night for the Live music,
We will be with some friends Alan & Carole who also visit Stefanos a lot, if you are around - say hello.
I expect we'll also be in the Condor to watch Chelsea win the Euro-cup as well - (saw your other post!!).
Have a good one - are you travelling from Gatwick? - North Terminal now!!
Tony
Happy Days in Agios Stefanos, Avliotes, Corfu!! TonyCo1

Any idea regarding 2009 festivals? Went to a great one by the tennis courts a couple of Junes ago. Heard about another on the beach that we missed and were just out of time for one in Arilas last August.
