Athens friends: Caoimhín Ó Fearghail, a musician who came all the way from Ireland for the Athens Irish Festival, lost his instrument - a very characteristic flute - in the Athens over the weekend. Please share in the hope that he can retrieve it.

Ας δούμε αν μπορούμε να βοηθήσουμε τον Ιρλανδό μουσικό που έχασε το όργανό του, ένα πολύ χαρακτηριστικό φλάουτο

Many thanks to the director and cast of "Waiting for Godot" for such an amazing staging of Samuel Beckett's thought-provoking play last night at the Theatre of the NO, Athens' new English-language theatre. Last performance tonight. Not to be missed.

[Irish Embassy Athens @IrlEmbAthens]

One of the benefits of working in @IrlEmbAthens is that we face the wonderful Panathenaic Stadium, site of the opening ceremony for the first modern Olympic games in April 1896!

Σήμερα εορτάζεται η Εθνική Εορτή της Ελλάδας, η 25η Μαρτίου 1821. ΧΡΟΝΙΑ ΠΟΛΛΑ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ!!!! Today is the National Day of Greece, March 25, 1821. HAPPY NATIONAL DAY, GREECE!!!!

[Greek-Irish Society @GreekIrishSoc]

Greece celebrates the outbreak of the 1821 Greek Revolution today, so it is fitting to remember Cork-born Sir Richard Church, "The liberator of Greece" and commander-in-chief of the Greek revolutionary forces in 1827.

Χρόνια πολλά σε όλους 🇬🇷Χ🇮🇪
