With Dimitris Kouroubalis as a host and festive melodies by the multicultural symphony orchestra and youth orchestra of El Sistema Greece and Onirama, the SNFCC marked the beginning of the Christmas season with a big celebration at the Agora.

Visitors, as well as online viewers, watched as thousands of Christmas lights illuminated the SNFCC to the sounds of music, and the Stavros Niarchos Park transformed into a magical landscape.

The SNFCC Christmas World comes alive, thanks to an exclusive grant by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.
