Description
The annual Athens PopFest, produced and presented by HHBTM Records, is more than an event where people passively consume entertainment. Now in its fifth year, the Athens PopFest has proven to be both a facilitator of and catalyst for a renewed international community spirit among discerning rock and pop fans.
International fans plan their entire Summer around the event and fans from the US often travel hundreds (for some, thousands) of miles to attend. Sure, they want to see the bands but what separates the Athens PopFest from the average summer festival is that each year friendships are made and deepened. It is, in many ways, an annual reunion which adds more 'family' members each year. Hence, the festival has been referred to for years as "Indie-Rock/Indie-Pop Summer Camp". From our first year which drew 800 attendees to last year which drew over 3,500 the Athens PopFest continues to grow exponentially in both size of audience and quality of entertainment presented.
What we have always sought to do with the Athens PopFest is present a high quality, multi-day and night event where people not only see their favorite bands but also those bands they would never get a chance to see otherwise; Where they meet and form lasting bonds with people and fans from around the world, each of whom has decided to make Athens a do-not-miss destination.
