Athens International Airport welcomes once again, for the fourth year in a row, in the framework of “Fly me to the Moon” programme, the
Intercultural Choir of the Greek National Opera (GNO)
, with a concert that will take airport visitors and passengers on a multicultural "journey", on
Saturday, May 26th
.
The Choir will present at the airport a repertoire of
traditional songs
