Rock, Folk and Jazz in Agios Ioannis, Corfu

Agiotfest is held each summer in the village of Agios Ioannis in central Corfu - just 15 minutes drive from Corfu Town. This year's entertainment takes place over two days - Friday 27 and Saturday 28 August - and each night's seated audience will be restricted to 1,000 people, to allow for easy access and parking. Topping the bill on Saturday will be the legendary Joe Brown and his band. Joe was one of the UK's original rock & roll stars who topped the charts and had The Beatles open shows for him. In a career packed with musical highlights he has also presented several series of the Joe Brown Show on TV, two series for Radio 2, and finds time to do around 100 live shows a year in the UK.

On Friday the headline attraction will be One Drop Forward, considered to be one of the best reggae bands in Greece. Support acts include folk/rock band 4Square, jazz singer Laura Zakian and local bands Omega 5 and The Good Ole Boys (back due to popular demand following their AgiotFest 09 performance).

Tickets are available online via Paypal and remain at 20 euros per night or 35 euros for both nights. There will be a special poolside package for those wishing to 'take five' during either evening.

Ample food and refreshment will be served, as last year at sensible prices. CDs and memorabilia will be on sale, and there will be raffles and much more going on in parallel with the performances. We can also arrange accommodation ranging from simple rooms to luxury villas. The festival management's aim is to make Agiotfest the largest rock music event in southern Europe within five years and they hope that this year's eclectic bill will attract a large and enthusiastic audience.
