Pop icon Kylie Minogue has officially landed in Athens—and she’s ready to light up the stage. Just hours before her highly anticipated performance at the Release Festival in Plateia (Square) Nerou, the Australian superstar sat down for an exclusive interview with MEGA, opening up about her love for Greece and what fans can expect from her show.

This marks Minogue’s first-ever appearance at the Release Festival, and excitement is running high. Dressed in her signature glam and radiating warmth, Kylie didn’t hold back when asked what draws her to Greece.

“What do I love about Greece? All the obvious things—the food, the sea, the weather,” she said with a smile. “But what really stays with me is the people. There’s this openness, this joy, this incredibly welcoming energy that makes me feel like I’m home.”

Kylie promises a night to remember.

“It’s going to be high-energy, emotional, filled with memories—and we’re going to have the best time,” she said, adding that tonight’s show will be the grand finale of the European leg of her “Tension Tour.” No wonder the team is buzzing with excitement.

The “Tension Tour,” which kicked off last year, is Kylie’s biggest tour in over 20 years, drawing massive crowds and rave reviews across Europe. Opening tonight’s show is acclaimed DJ and producer Antonis Dimitriadis, followed by a performance from Eurovision winner and fan favorite, Loreen, before Kylie takes the stage.

With her signature mix of charisma, dance-floor hits, and emotional resonance, Kylie Minogue is set to deliver a show that Athens won’t soon forget.

“Greece, I love you so much—and I love MEGA too!” she said, signing off with a heartfelt message to her Greek fans.
