Cretelia Festival 2019

Cretelia Festival , 16.9.-22.9.19 The Cretelia Festival takes you and your friends for a week to legendary scenes of the hippy high culture of the 60s - especially to the magical place Matala , located on the Greek island of Crete. Matala was one of the strongholds of European dropouts in the 1960s. In Matala , hippies from all over the world lived in the Neolithic dungeons for years , including many young US citizens who refused to participate in the Vietnam War , and founded one of the largest hippie communities there. At times , the famous American singer Joni Mitchell also lived here. Jimi Hendrix was there and the famous Mercedes Benz vocalist Janis Joplin jumped from the Matala rocks into the warm Libyan Sea. Still today live here year-round hippies in the caves and are the last witnesses of this legendary time. Cretelia travels with you and many well-known Djs from Europe to this almost mythical place - initiating beach parties and club nights in the open air , overlooking the illuminated caves of the Neolithic - celebrates Deephousepartys with live musicians right on the beautiful Komos Beach , where Jim Morrison once walked - and let yourself be captivated and inspired by the aura of this stronghold of freedom and love.
