When and Where?
June 18-23, 2023
The Milos Conference Center – George Eliopoulos is located at Adamas, the Milos Island’s main port, on a 10,000 sq. meters plot. The Center has been established by Mrs. Kitty Kyriacopoulos in her father’s George Eliopoulos memory. The Milos Conference Center is housed in a restored old kaolin processing plant, built in 1925, overlooking the gulf of Milos.
It is an excellent sample of its period’s industrial architecture. It was abandoned and derelict for many years, falling apart before becoming the property of ORYMIL S.A., a company belonging to Mrs. Kitty Kyriacopoulos. The ruin was fully restored with high aesthetical standards and respect to its original architecture.
The initial concept was to be preserved and serve as a characteristic benchmark of the country’s industrial heritage. The ultimate decision was the edifice to be used as the home for conferences, cultural and other events, solving thus one of the Island’s perennial problems, the lack of modern large multipurpose halls.
