WHAT IS AESCHYLEIA
The Aeschyleia is a festival first staged in 1975 by Elefsina Council. The festival is now held each year, at the same season in which the ancient Greeks celebrated the famous Elefsinian Mysteries. The various events in the festival programme are designed to showcase the works of the great tragic poet, Aeschylus, and also of the other major ancient dramatists – Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, etc. TITAN has consistently supported the local council in reviving organizing the festival and every year provides financial support for the various events.
