Elion Society of South Australia’s taverna night draws a packed house

·

On Friday, October 25, the Elion Society of South Australia’s taverna night delivered an unforgettable experience of Greek culture, with a completely sold-out crowd. 

Doors opened at 6:30 pm, and by the event’s 7:00 pm start, excitement filled the air as guests settled in for an evening brimming with authentic food, live music, and vibrant entertainment.

Guests were treated to a three-course Mediterranean feast that captured the essence of Greek cuisine, serving as the perfect introduction to a night rich in culture and connection. 

DJ Stelio Mitsos kept spirits high, while the skilled bouzouki performance by Andrew Harpas brought an unmistakably Greek touch to the atmosphere, uniting everyone in a celebration of tradition and community.

Dancing was a centrepiece of the evening, with Maria Miltiadous and Tasoula Mitropoulos leading the dance groups, adding an energetic and interactive element to the event. Guests joined in enthusiastically, embracing the lively spirit that filled the dance floor and brought people together.

Thanks were extended to St George College for its support, along with the Elion Society Committee, whose hard work made the night a resounding success. 

For those who missed out this time, the Elion Society of SA has more cultural events on the horizon, so keep an eye out for what’s coming next.
