In search of further details, NouPou contacted the brand\u2019s communications team in Paris. The response from the Pascale Venot agency was diplomatically brief: Clara Schwarz clarified that, for the time being, there is nothing to announce beyond the international projects already in the pipeline. Bungalow 7, for its part, is not confirming any imminent changes at this stage, and the venue continues to operate as usual.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, NouPou\u2019s sources maintain that the prospect of Gigi Rigolatto arriving in Greece remains very much alive, with a possible opening on the seafront pencilled in for spring 2027.<\/p>\n
