The Lonsdale St Greek Festival and the Greek Festival of Sydney are delighted to announce that headlining the biggest Greek parties of 2019 will be one of Greece’s most popular singing sensations - Eleonora Zouganeli on her first ever Australian visit. Zouganeli’s contemporary and traditional songs and her versatile singing style will cater to audiences young and old - cementing her reputation as a household name.

Eleonora Zouganeli, the daughter of multi-talented entertainer Yannis Zouganelis and actress Isidora Sideri has performed next to many great Greek artists including Giorgos Dalaras, Dimitris Mitropanos, Michalis Hatzigiannis, Filippos Pliatsikas and Lavrendis Mahairitsas. With a unique ability to cater for a wide range of musical tastes, she has been entertaining audiences all over Greece and Cyprus for over a decade.

Lonsdale St Greek Festival Chairs, Tammy Iliou & Leonidas Vlahakis said “We are very excited to confirm Ms Zouganeli as our marquee act for our 2019 event. She is a worthy inclusion to the long line of stellar performers that have played on the corner of Russell & Lonsdale over the years.”

Greek Festival of Sydney Chair, Nia Karteris said “Zouganeli is an exciting addition to our event and we’re anticipating audiences will be just as pleased with her inclusion as we are. We can’t wait to welcome her to Australia”.

“I am looking forward to performing in Australia and in particular at the Antipodes Festival and the Greek Festival of Sydney” said Zouganeli from Athens.
