Ellinadika (Greek Music Clubs)

Ellinadika (Greek Music Clubs)

An Ellinadiko highlights the lifestyle of patrons who enjoy a fusion ranging between international-style "clubbing" with Greek "tsiftedeli" (def. "belly dancing") in the same space.

At most Ellinadika, there is a live music program on a small stage performing the hits of various Greek stars, while the space is more "designer made" and standing room only with a DJ mainly entertaining the crowds. Prices are quite reasonable in relation to the major venues where the popular Greek singers perform in person. In any case, both promise a good time until the morning hours. The repertoire at the Ellinadika usually goes through hip hop beats, to commercial hits (mid-program) to traditional songs (in the early morning), moving finally into the greatest modern Greek hits for a grand finale.
