TRADITIONAL DANCES
DANCING CLUB OF MESSOLONGHI
The dancing department of the Municipality of Messolonghi, was renamed in March 2010 to Dancing Club of Messolonghi.
It represents our sacred city, by presenting our customs, dances and songs from the St. Symeon Festival but also dances from Rumeli. Dances from all over Greece are being taught, in order to give the opportunity to members to learn about the history of the manners and customs of our country.

The Dance department operates in a hall of the 2nd elementary school of Messolonghi, always aiming for the best that can be given to the cultural level of its members and our city.
