This Festival started in the summer of 2005 and it has been continuing to grow ever since.
PAF
brings together artists from Greece and all over Europe. There is a big
mixture of events including, graffiti, live music, DJ-ing, video art,
graffiti seminars, exibitions, juggling, dancing shows and there is
always the vision of much more.
The
festival takes place on the Island of Corfu close to the small village
called Pelekas, where there is easy access to beautiful beaches. PAF
provides camping, hotels, food and drink and a great environment to
have fun and enjoy. All events are free for the public, where artists
and audience can meet and enjoy the relaxed summer atmosphere under the
trees. In the summer of 2006 graffiti artists once more travelled
to Corfu. From 30 June to 4 July more than 170 participants - artists,
musicians, DJs, dancers and jugglers, from Greece and abroad, flocked
to the village of Pelekas for the 2nd PAF Graffiti and Music Festival.
The tents that started to sprout on the organized camp site
unofficially marked the beginning of the five-day event. And as the
empty walls started to hum with colour, the olive groves filled with
the sound of DJ sets on the 1st Stage, covering a broad range of
musical styles and trends.
Even during the hottest hours of the day, the specially shaped location
provided all kinds of facilities, taking the visitors' experience to
another level.
In the evening, everyone gathered around the larger 2nd Stage, where
DJs, bands, MCs and various happenings set off dancing and fun. The
culmination came with the concerts that took place in the centre of the
village Pelekas, which whipped up even the most "peaceful" locals.
The end of the festival found participants and visitors hearts and
minds filled with sounds, colourful creations and friendly interaction.
The rendezvous will be renewed this year!!!
This summer the PAF Graffiti and Music festival is being held
from the 25th to the 27nd of July.
COME AND JOIN IN AND HAVE A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE FILLED WITH COLOUR- MUSIC AND FRIENDSHIP!

''Graffiti are paintings on walls.
Yet, they are not trapped in them; they are a live part of them...''
