Dean Kotsianis, Board Member of the Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) remarked, “The Zorba dance is a timeless tradition. Its movements, sounds, and energy have the power to transport you mentally to Greece. Now, with our incredible partners at Scoot, we can ‘teleport’ there physically too! Thousands will watch, hundreds will apply but only a few will have their chance at glory. This competition is, for me, one of the most exciting events of our Antipodes Festival. We are fortunate to pair it with such exciting individuals and partners.” 

Adding to Dean’s comment, Antonia Tsamis, the GCM Events Manager and Co-ordinator of the Antipodes Festival stated “I am thrilled to see the Festival continue to grow and flourish. We are grateful for Scoot’s continued support, which allows us to create unforgettable experiences for our Festival attendees, and the ability to offer such an incredible prize.”

The Antipodes Festival will take place on the 24th and 25th of February.
