Canberra Hellenic Dancers’ Family Night celebrates Greek culture and talent

·

The Canberra Hellenic Dancers’ (CHD) Family Night, the organisation’s largest annual event, brought together more than 550 attendees this year in a vibrant celebration of Greek culture, community and dance.

This year’s theme, “Greece’s Got Talent,” featured an entertaining panel of judges, including Simon Cowell, iconic Greek singer Anna Vissi, and the humorous Yiayia Frosso, “direct from the horio.” 

The night showcased a variety of performances, from magicians and ventriloquists to some (slightly off-key) singers, keeping the audience thoroughly entertained.

The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the performances by CHD’s dancing groups. Students proudly displayed what they had been learning throughout the year, incorporating both traditional and modern Greek dances. 

This year’s showcase was made even more special by the inclusion of dances learned during the CHD’s inaugural trip to Greece.

The event was a resounding success, leaving attendees with fond memories of the vibrant Greek traditions that CHD continues to promote and preserve.
