Description
The Rockwave Festival journey begins in 1996. This was the first attempt in Greece to create an institution of an annual live music event to host contemporary pop and rock artists and bands. The goal was achieved! Many prestigious artists have been hosted by Rockwave Festival through the years.
Since 2004, Rockwave Festival takes place a half-an-hour-drive from the centre of Athens in the naturally preserved area, TerraVibe Park in Malakasa, offering a full festival experience. Beautiful green surroundings, camping, shops, bars, fun games, merch and memorabilia are all there! Today, established but yet enthusiastic as ever, Rockwave is the most popular festival in the area of Southeast Europe, synonymous with the arrival of summer, a main attraction for Greek and international audiences.
