    "Greece has a unique natural beauty as well as historical and archaeological monuments that everyone wants to visit, offering unforgettable experiences," he underlined. Moreover, as he said, it has the proper weather conditions that allows further to extend the tourist season.

    Amvrazis called on everyone in tourism sector to protect Greece's beauties and showcase them.

    [03] Football match on Saturday to raise money for UNICEF

    A football match will be organised on Saturday, June 25, at 5.30 pm, at the municipal stadium of Rafina to raise money for UNICEF.

    The aim of the match is to promote solidarity and love for children. The revenues will be given to the humanitarian organisation.

    The event is held under the auspices of the Rafina-Pikermi municipality.

    The team of UNICEF consists of journalists, veteran international footballers, policemen, lawyers, actors and high school students.

    [04] Mediterranean Panorama to promote Greece in Scandinavia

    North Events will organise the 1st Mediterranean Panorama at Stockholm's expo center on March 18-19, 2017.

    The Mediterranean Panorama will focus Greece, but it will also promote a series of other Mediterranean tourist destinations. The company is further promoting its successful Grekland Panorama, which has been promoting Greece to the Scandinavian market in the past years.

    "In view of the fact that the Swedish market lacks a major international tourism exhibition and spurred by local tour operators and the interest of other Mediterranean destinations, North Events wishes to make use of this great business opportunity and attempt to strategically fill in the gap combining the expertise and special characteristics of the Grekland Panorama with the needs and demands of the market," North Events general manager Leonidas Babanis said.

    The company will also focus on attracting elderly visitors from Sweden and Denmark to Greece by organising "senior" tourism fairs in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmo.

    North Events will also organise the 1st Greek-Serb conference on tourism in Belgrade and the 2nd Grecka Panorama in Warsaw on December.
