Corfu choirs to perform on Vidos Island

Two days of cultural events on Vidos Island begin on Monday 1 August. Several of Corfu's choirs will put on a programme of well-known and much-loved choral works in the small island's idyllic setting. Following the recent problems with the shuttle service, the events come as a confirmation of the 'reappropriation' of the island, Deputy Mayor for Culture Chrysoula Tombrou tells us.

The events are officially being held for the completion of the programme of cooperation between Central Corfu Municipality and Italian Municipalities. Ms. Tombrou tells us, however, that Vidos is much loved by all Corfu Town residents and the local authority was seeking a way to start holding cultural events there.
