The historic village of Gastouri, home to the Achilleion Palace, comes alive on August 6th for its annual Transfiguration festival. This “Panigiri” is renowned for its elegance and deep cultural roots.

The narrow, Venetian-style streets of Gastouri provide a magical setting for the evening’s festivities. As the local Philharmonic bands provide a grand musical backdrop, the village square becomes a hub of celebration. It is a fantastic opportunity to explore one of Corfu’s most beautiful villages while participating in a tradition that has survived for centuries.
