·Ionian Independence Day, May 21
After centuries of scattershot foreign rule, the Ionian islands once again became part of the country of Greece. Parades, festivals, and a solemn ceremony – often headed by the Greek Prime Minister – mark this milestone in Greek history.

I don't know what the festival was for other than it seemed a local one but we were in San Stef about 3 years ago when they held one. It was situated in the field by the tennis courts. There was a lamb/hog roast and live greek music and dancing. There was a bar and everyone, locals and holidaymakers were having a great time. It was either the last week of june or first in july. We have been at the same time for 9 years and only seen this once.
