5 Reasons We Keep Falling In Love With Greece In The Summer
There’s just something about summer in Greece. It’s not just the weather or the sea, it’s a whole mindset. Things slow down, the days feel fuller (but somehow more relaxed), and life shifts outdoors. If you’ve spent even one summer in Greece, you’ll know exactly what we mean. For us, here’s what makes it so special:
1. Slow living
Summer in Greece feels like permission to pause. The pace changes; less rushing, more doing things just because. Coffee isn’t taken 'on the go', it’s always taken sitting down and typically in conversation with others. Plans are loose, and the best days often come together at the last minute. It’s a reminder that not everything needs to be scheduled for sometimes; life's best moments are unplanned.
2. Late nights & lazy mornings
Everything runs a little later in the summer — dinner at 10, walks at midnight, conversations that last into the early hours. And the mornings? They’re slow and gentle. You wake up to light pouring in, the sound of cicadas, maybe a frappe on the balcony. No urgency, just ease.
3. Outdoor everything
When the weather’s this good, life moves outside. Dinner tables spill onto sidewalks. You catch a film at an open-air cinema or stumble upon a neighborhood panigiri. Even the simplest things — a drink on the balcony, a walk by the sea — feel like mini celebrations of summer.
4. The sea, the sun, the reset
There’s nothing quite like the Greek sea. Whether it’s a hidden cove or a buzzing beach, something about diving into that blue washes everything else away. The sun, the salt, the sound of the waves; it just clears your head in ways you didn’t know you needed.
5. Fruits & veggies that actually taste like something
Summer is peak season for Greece’s local produce. Tomatoes that smell like the sun, peaches so juicy they drip down your chin, sweet watermelon by the kilo. It’s all grown nearby, sold at the weekly laikí (farmer’s market), and picked at just the right time.
Our wish to you this summer in Greece > Savor the bliss of feeling the moment & enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival Sets Record With 168 Teams & 340 Games In Syros
Miaouli Square transformed for the 7th consecutive year into the ultimate basketball destination
With impressive turnout and an atmosphere of excitement, the largest FIBA 3X3 Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival 2025 concluded successfully. For the 7th year, it filled the capital of the Cyclades with energy, passion, and basketball stars, transforming it — from June 27 to 29 — into a global point of reference. The historic Miaouli Square, with the iconic Ermoupolis Town Hall in the background, was once again transformed into a unique open-air basketball venue, gathering athletes of all ages — professionals and amateurs — and a large audience from all over Greece and abroad.
The festival, once again, served as a vibrant hub of sports, entertainment, and inspiration, offering to the visitors unique moments and promoting the values of sports and participation. Basketball returned to neighborhoods, to open courts, and to the hoops of childhood — where the love for the game is born. Parallel activities and surprises accompanied the games, enhancing the experience for young and old, reminding everyone of the magic of playing outside, with passion, spontaneity, and smiles.
The event broke all records
The iconic Miaouli Square was once again transformed into the center of Greek 3X3, hosting the biggest basketball event of the year.
With continuous flow of games on 4 open courts, Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival set a new participation record, with 590 male and female athletes and 168 teams (70 adult and 98 youth teams, as well as many women’s teams) taking part — numbers that surpass every previous similar event in Greece. Within 3 days, 340 games were held across different categories, offering non-stop action and strong emotions for all ages. Each day, more than 2,500 spectators filled the square, while professional and amateur athletes — aged from 9 to 58 — gave their best, filling Syros with basketball energy. The participants came from Greece, Europe, and America, confirming the international character of the festival.

The participants came from Greece, Europe, and America, confirming the international character of the festival.
At the same time, hundreds of children engaged with the sport in a festive and family-friendly atmosphere, promoting amateur sports.
The importance of the event as a basketball institution was underlined by the presence of Greek Deputy Minister of Education, Religious Affairs and Sports, Mr. Giannis Vroutsis, in Syros, reinforcing the significance of Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival both for sports and the local community. In the context of strengthening collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Religious Affairs and Sports, the festival proceeded with the renaming of the U11 children’s category to U11 Dimitrios Vikelas, paying tribute to the Syros-born author Dimitrios Vikelas, who played a pivotal role in the revival of the Olympic Games in Athens in 1896.
With this initiative, under the auspices and support of the National Organizing Committee for Athletic, Olympic, and Paralympic Education, History & Values, the aim was to highlight the timeless values of sport and bring children closer to the values of sports and education through inspiring role models.

Creation of an Indoor Basketball Court in Syros
During his presence on the island, Deputy Minister Giannis Vroutsis announced that he is fulfilling the request of both the festival’s visionary Georgios Printezis and all the residents of Syros, following the proposal and study by the Municipality of Syros–Ermoupolis for the construction of an indoor basketball court on the island.
A festival that left a social impact on Syros
Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival 2025 was not only a top-level sports event but also once again highlighted its important social role for the island of Syros. The festival practically supported sports tourism, contributing to the full occupancy of accommodations and offering visitors the chance to experience the beauty and hospitality of Syros through the lens of a modern sports institution. For the 7th year, the vision of Georgios Printezis proved that sports can act as a driver for social contribution, returning to squares and neighborhood courts. As part of its corporate responsibility actions, Stoiximan, which participated for the fourth consecutive year as title sponsor, delivered a project of substantial value to the local community: the fully renovated outdoor basketball court at the Municipal Sports Center of Ermoupolis "Dimitrios Vikelas" giving new life to a public sports space and making it accessible to young and old alike.
Sports came even closer to the new generation, through a basketball clinic held on Thursday, June 26, by EuroLeague legend and European champion with Real Madrid Joe Arlauckas, who passed on his love and values of the sport to the children of Syros. The clinic was also honored by the presence of international player Dimitris Mavroeidis. Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival once again supported and highlighted amateur sports, while bringing global stars from the NBA and Europe closer to the Syros audience, proving that the event has become an institution that goes beyond sports and leaves a meaningful social impact. On the same evening, Miaouli Square hosted a special moment of the festival, with journalist and presenter Maria Mpekatorou conducting an exclusive interview with Georgios Printezis. In a warm and heartfelt conversation before the audience, the festival’s founder shared moments, memories, and his vision for the island and the event.
Basketball stars who “lit up” Miaouli Square
At this year’s Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival, eleven spectacular teams – the Stoiximan Falcons, COSMOTE TELEKOM Rockets, Intersport Raiders, adidas Titans, Blue Star Sharks, L'Oréal Paris Men Expert Nets, Nespresso Vikings, Seiko Hawks, Seneca Pacers, Trident Long Lasters, and Snappi Raptors – “turned up the heat” on the court at Miaouli Square. Their rosters included some of the biggest names in European and Greek basketball: Alongside Georgios Printezis, were two-time EuroLeague champion and best defender Bryant Dunston, EuroLeague champion Luca Vildoza, assist wizard Marcelo Huertas, and European basketball legends Dimitris Diamantidis, Theodoros Papaloukas, and Giannis Bourousis. On the court also appeared EuroLeague champions Kostas Papanikolaou and Vangelis Mantzaris, internationals Giannoulis Larentzakis, Dimitris Mavroeidis, and Nikos Gkikas, former Cyprus national team captain Panagiotis Trisokkas, and top athletes Nikos Rogkavopoulos, Omiros Netzipoglou, Nikolas Plotas, Giorgos Fillios.
Women’s presence was stronger than ever, with top female athletes proving that basketball knows no gender. Among them were EuroCup and Greek champion Eleanna Christinaki, Greek Cup and league champion Dionysia Alexandri, international champions Mariella Fasoula and Ioanna Diela, international players Penelope Pavlopoulou, Renia Karlafti, and outstanding athletes Athanasia Panagiotopoulou, Ismini Prapa, Chrysa Kilazidou, Vasiliki Louka, Georgia Veloudou, and Nelly Bibiri, strengthening the festival with energy, talent, and sportsmanship.
Familiar faces in the capital of the Cyclades
Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival in Syros welcomed once again beloved and well-known figures from sports and entertainment, adding color and uniqueness to the event. Among them were "lord of the rings" Lefteris Petrounias, Olympic gold and double bronze medalist and eight-time European champion, who impressed with his presence. Also present were Greek football legend Giorgos Karagounis, world parkour champion Dimitris Kyrsanidis, charismatic Giorgos Lentzas, and dynamic sports journalist Christina Vrachali, who all brought pulse, positivity, and true love for sports to the audience.
The VIP 4on4 games held for the first time on Saturday and the VIP League 3x3 on Sunday were broadcasted live by COSMOTE TV, offering millions of viewers the chance to watch the excitement and passion of these thrilling matchups, with presenter Fanis Lampropoulos bringing humor and liveliness to the broadcast.
The spectacular Dunking Devils by Stoiximan fired up the crowd with their incredible dunks, providing countless moments of awe and enthusiasm for the fans who filled the venue and stayed in their seats until the end.
Miaouli Square turned into a colorful space full of entertainment and interactive experiences
During this year’s Stoiximan AegeanBall Festival, Miaouli Square became a lively, colorful entertainment hub, full of energy and interactive experiences for young and old. At the specially designed sponsor booths — Stoiximan, COSMOTE TELEKOM, L'Oréal Paris Men Expert, Seneca, Trident, and Snappi — visitors had the chance to participate in interactive games and competitions, win gifts and surprises, enjoy music, and share unique moments with their favorite athletes.
