Crete Traditional Entertainment

Let your guests experience the culture of Crete firsthand by booking Crete Traditional Entertainment for your next event.

A tribute to Crete’s folk culture

Established with the goal of preserving the tradition, history, and folk culture of their country, this Cretan folk dance group brings an authentic touch of Crete to your event or special occasion.

Having performed at prestigious venues and festivals across Greece and Europe, our Crete folk dancers have shared their rich cultural heritage with guests at the Bozar Centre of Fine Arts in Brussels, the Embassy of the Republic of Iraq in Greece, and the historic Klathmonos square in Athens.

Pentozali: the traditional dance of Crete

A purely martial dance, pentozali is also considered a ‘war dance.’ It represents the uprising, heroism, and hope of the Cretes. A vibrant dance characterized by high jumping movements, dancers hold each other’s shoulders and make a circle that rotates at different speeds.

Offering flexible and scalable lineup choices, our Cretan folk dancers can fully adapt to your needs. Though traditionally performed by men only, both male and female dancers are now available for your event. Additionally, they offer both stage and roaming performances.

Suitable for a wide range of events, Pentozali dancers are the perfect choice for corporate events, weddings, private parties, cultural events, festivals, concerts, theaters, and more. Dressed in traditional Crete folk costumes, our Crete folk dance group is guaranteed to bring a genuine touch from their country to your special occasion.

Top Tip:

Pentozali dancers can be accompanied by live musicians upon request. They can also engage with your guests by teaching them some basic moves after their performance.
