As 2024 comes to an end, we want to take a moment to reflect on the year that was and express our deepest gratitude.
This year has been truly remarkable, filled with moments that united our community and cherished traditions. Here’s a look at some of the highlights that made 2024 unforgettable:
Antipodes Lonsdale St Festival, Melbourne (February 2024)
We kicked off the year with an incredible performance by our dance group, showcasing the largest number of dancers on stage ever for Flambouro. Their energy and pride captivated the audience, making it an unforgettable moment.
March Dinner Dance
A night to remember, filled with kefi. The dance floor stayed full all evening as guests revelled in traditional music, delicious food, and the warmth of Greek hospitality.
Pastitsio & Quiz Night (July 2024)
The night was filled with laughter and friendly competition as everyone enjoyed pastitsio and tested their knowledge. It was a wonderful way to come together and enjoy some friendly rivalry in a welcoming atmosphere!

Another magical evening, where friends and families gathered to dance, dine, and enjoy an atmosphere of parea. This event featured a spectacular new performance from our dance group. It was a celebration of everything that makes our community special.

Pan Macedonian National Dinner Dance, Brisbane (November 2024)
We were honored to be invited by the Pan Macedonian Federation of SA to represent the Flambouro Philanthropic Society of SA. Our performance at the Federation's national dinner dance was a tremendous success. It was a true privilege to share our passion for Greek dancing with such a welcoming and appreciative audience.
Our dance group’s performance was a proud moment, highlighting their talent and dedication. This event brought people together from across Australia in a significant celebration of cultural pride, and we were grateful to contribute.
