Join us in Greece with our Football Course running between 3rd and 7th August 2026 for an incredible family holiday — with football at its heart.
Our Football Escapes experience at the five-star IKOS Olivia blends luxury and laid-back comfort in a way that works brilliantly for families.
Each morning, children take part in exciting football sessions led by our UEFA-licensed coaches and a Premier League ambassador. While they’re out on the pitch, parents can enjoy the calm — unwind by the pool, book into the spa, or simply savour a peaceful breakfast overlooking the sea.
Afternoons are all about coming together. From beach adventures and shared mealtimes to enjoying the resort’s brilliant facilities, it’s the kind of holiday that creates memories for the whole family.
There’s plenty to look forward to — from the Parents’ Game and Q&A sessions to the big medal celebration on the final day.
