Thessaloniki Art & Music Summit (THAMS)

Thessaloniki Art & Music Summit (THAMS) is a new international center for artistic creation, cultural exchange, and contemporary music inspired by Greece.
Organized by Global Arts United (GAU), in partnership with Ablaze Records, THAMS brings together composers, visual artists, ensembles, and the Thessaloniki State Symphony Orchestra (TSSO) for two weeks of performances, workshops, collaborations, and cultural immersion in one of Europe’s most historic and vibrant cities.
 Each edition celebrates a Greek-oriented theme, drawn from mythology, history, philosophy, or tradition, ensuring that new artistic creation remains rooted in the country’s millennia-old cultural legacy.

The inaugural 2026 edition explores Orpheus, reimagining the ancient myth through new compositions, performances, and interdisciplinary collaborations.
