Ziria

The Ziria Music Festival returns to the village of Trikala in Corinthia on the last weekend of August. Void Droid, Puta Volcano, Planet of Zeus and Molimo are just a few of the dozens of music acts, from Thrace to Crete and as far away as Africa, slated to perform at the festival's ninth outing on the slopes of Mount Ziria (Killini) on August 24, 25 and 26. Admission is free.

A second shocking instance of dead horses surfaced on Friday when residents in the mountainous Papigo region of Ioannina prefecture, NW Greece, reported the discovery of two carcasses of wild horses.
