Reworks Festival Thessaloniki 2026: CamelPhat, WhoMadeWho, Miss Monique and Rivo at Kyverneío
Reworks is one of Greece's longest-running electronic music festivals — founded in 2005 in Thessaloniki, it has grown into a reference point for contemporary club culture in Southern Europe. Its spring edition, Reworks Agora 2026, runs May 22–24 at the Kyverneío (Palataki) — a neoclassical mansion on the Thessaloniki waterfront — and this year's lineup is the clearest signal yet that the festival has no intention of coasting on reputation alone.
Three days. Four headliners. Two of the most distinctive live acts in melodic techno and house, and one of the fastest-rising producers in the world right now.
What Is Reworks Agora, and Why Does This Year's Edition Matter?
The main Reworks festival runs in September. Reworks Agora is its spring counterpart — a three-day programme that blends music with panels, talks, and what the organisers describe as "a platform for exchange, connection, and inspiration." In practice, it means the event has a different atmosphere to a standard festival: more focused, more considered, anchored at a single signature venue rather than spread across the city.
Since its first edition, Agora has hosted acts including Tale Of Us at Kyverneío. The 2026 edition continues that booking logic. The main Reworks festival this year runs September 16–20, making Agora the opening chapter of what Thessaloniki's electronic calendar looks like in 2026.
Who Is Playing Reworks Agora 2026 — and Why Should You Care?
The lineup splits across two nights. Day 1 (May 22) opens with Miss Monique and Rivo. Day 3 (May 24) closes with CamelPhat and WhoMadeWho. All four acts are listed on the Reworks Agora 2026 event page on Mood.
CamelPhat are Liverpool's Dave Whelan and Mike Di Scala — a duo who have been building something quietly enormous since 2006. Their 2017 collaboration with Elderbrook, "Cola," was nominated for a Grammy and counts over two billion streams. Their albums Dark Matter (2020) and Spiritual Milk (2023) mapped a sound at the intersection of progressive house and melodic techno. They are not a spectacle act. They are a producer act.
WhoMadeWho are a different proposition. The Danish trio — Tomas Høffding, Tomas Barfod, and Jeppe Kjellberg — have been making records since 2003 and have spent the last several years building a live reputation that few acts in this genre can match. Their Hybrid Set places Barfod in the booth while bandmates add improvised vocals, synths, bass, and effects in real time.
Miss Monique — Ukrainian DJ and Siona Records founder Alesia Arkusha — made her DJ Mag Top 100 debut at #75 in 2025 and won a DJ Awards for best Progressive/Melodic House artist.
Rivo is 25, French, and already sitting on a Disclosure remix that crossed 220 million Spotify streams and spent four weeks at #1 on Beatport.
What Makes CamelPhat and WhoMadeWho Worth Seeing Live?
There is a moment in a WhoMadeWho hybrid set — usually somewhere in the second hour — when the bassline drops back, the synth melody opens up, and one of the vocalists steps to the edge of the stage and sings directly into the crowd. No reverb trick, no hype. It lands like a frequency you didn't know you were waiting for.
CamelPhat's sets operate on a different register: darker, more architectural, built from low-end pressure and patient melodic release. Together on the same programme, they form a rare pairing — one act that plays the room emotionally, one that plays it physically.
Where Is Kyverneío (Palataki) in Thessaloniki?
The Kyverneío (Palataki) is a mid-century neoclassical mansion in the Kalamaria district, on the southeastern waterfront of Thessaloniki. It served for decades as the official residence of the Minister for Northern Greece. Reworks Agora has held editions here for several years running. Doors open at 17:00 on Day 1.
