Event details

The Zéfyros Hellenic Dance Society in Vancouver is challenging communities across Canada and the USA to a Christmas Carol Challenge.

Every year, the dance society joins local musicians as they present traditional Greek Christmas carols.  They use this opportunity to raise funds for charity.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of presenting kalanta.  In celebration of this event, we invite YOU to participate in our first "Kalanta Challenge"

Here’s how it works:
1. Your group organizes a carolling event in your community, and chooses which charity to donate to.  If you are presenting Greek carols, are able to supply the list of songs & lyrics that we have been using over the years. Feel free to present carols from any other part of the world, in any language.

2. Post photos or videos of your event on our Facebook and send us the link.  We would love to hear of your success.  https://www.facebook.com/Zefyros-Καλαντα-Challenge-1765711153734195/

3.  Challenge other organizations, musicians, community groups so they can do the same.  Pass it along - sharing is caring.  

4. Promote the charity you supported with your challenge

Merry Christmas and happy singing!
