The first Pan-Hellenic Truffle Festival in Kalambaka was a huge success

The success of this festival was immense, as proven by the participation of thousands of visitors who enjoyed thousands of servings of mushroom-truffle dishes completely free of charge, along with cultural events, truffle seminars, children’s activities, and more.

The assistance of one of Greece’s top chefs, Lefteris Lazarou, who participated in the outstanding festival, was particularly noteworthy. In Meteora, the Museum’s officials are preparing for this year’s festival, which will take place in October.
