One of its core activities concerns the national coordination of the European Music Day organisers network in Greece, the support to live event organisers and the development of collaborations with local and European partners.

MESO (Music Events Coordination Organization) was established in 1998 with the support of the French and Hellenic ministries of Culture as a national coordination office for the European Music Day (EMD) and developed according to the constitution of the governing body, the AISBL Fête Européenne de la Musique” – “I.N.P.O.
