Ελλάδα – Κίνα: Στρατηγική Συνεργασία στον Πολυτελή Γαμήλιο Τουρισμό με Πολλαπλά Οφέλη για την Ελληνική Οικονομία
Αθήνα, Σάββατο 28 Ιουνίου 2025 – Με φόντο την ενίσχυση της εξωστρέφειας του ελληνικού τουρισμού και την περαιτέρω διείσδυση στην ασιατική αγορά, η Ένωση Διοργανωτών Εκδηλώσεων με Προορισμό την Ελλάδα (Greek Destination Planners Association) υπέγραψε στρατηγικό μνημόνιο συνεργασίας με την αντίστοιχη ένωση της Κίνας, η οποία εκπροσωπεί τις επτά μεγαλύτερες περιφερειακές ενότητες της χώρας στον κλάδο του γαμήλιου τουρισμού.
Η τελετή υπογραφής πραγματοποιήθηκε στην Αθήνα, στο ξενοδοχείο “Μεγάλη Βρετανία”, παρουσία υψηλόβαθμων Κινέζων επαγγελματιών, οι οποίοι είχαν την ευκαιρία να γνωρίσουν από κοντά τις δυνατότητες της Ελλάδας στον τομέα των πολυτελών εκδηλώσεων και να ξεκινήσουν επαφές για μελλοντικές συνεργασίες.
Αυτή η νέα γέφυρα συνεργασίας έχει στόχοι να τοποθετήσει την Ελλάδα δυναμικά στο επίκεντρο του διεθνούς γαμήλιου τουρισμού.
Οικονομικά Οφέλη:
Η αγορά πολυτελών γάμων από την Κίνα εκτιμάται σε δισεκατομμύρια δολάρια ετησίως. Η προσέλκυση ακόμη και ενός μικρού ποσοστού αυτής της αγοράς στη χώρα μας μπορεί να οδηγήσει:
· σε αύξηση του τουριστικού εισοδήματος (μέσος όρος δαπάνης ανά γάμο 80.000–150.000 ευρώ),
· σε τόνωση τοπικών οικονομιών και απασχόλησης,
· σε ανάπτυξη υπηρεσιών υψηλής προστιθέμενης αξίας (φιλοξενία, εστίαση, μεταφορές, καλλιτεχνικές υπηρεσίες κ.ά.),
· και σε ενίσχυση της εικόνας της Ελλάδας ως lifestyle προορισμού στην Ασία.
Το Σωματείο Διοργανωτών Γάμων Προορισμού Ελλάδος (Greek Destination Planners Association) θεωρεί ότι η σύμπραξη αυτή αποτελεί στρατηγικής σημασίας βήμα για τη χώρα, καθώς ενδυναμώνει τις σχέσεις με την Κίνα όχι μόνο σε τουριστικό αλλά και σε πολιτισμικό και επιχειρηματικό επίπεδο.
Δήλωση Εκπροσώπου της Ένωσης:
“Η Κίνα αναζητά αυθεντικότητα, πολιτισμό και εμπειρίες υψηλής αισθητικής — ακριβώς ό,τι πρεσβεύει η Ελλάδα. Μέσα από αυτή τη συνεργασία, ανοίγουμε νέους ορίζοντες για τη χώρα μας.”
Το Σωματείο GDPA ευχαριστεί θερμά όλους τους συμμετέχοντες στην αποστολή και δεσμεύεται να συνεχίσει να εργάζεται συστηματικά για την ανάδειξη της Ελλάδας ως κορυφαίου διεθνούς προορισμού στον τομέα του luxury destination weddings.

✨ Party in Greece
There is no single way to celebrate here.
Cabaret or disco. Vintage glamour or modern pulse.
Feathers, mirror balls, bare feet, fireworks.
In Greece, the party adapts to the couple, to their rhythm, their story, their idea of joy.

✨Hands in the air, cocktails in motion, dance floors that refuse to empty, and fireworks that turn the night into a celebration of its own.
🍾This is Party in Greece, where weddings don’t wind down, they level up. Where guests become dancers, moments become stories, and the night stretches just a little longer than planned.
