The
Triodion is open… as they say in Greece, and along with it comes joy,
fun and lots of kefi in each town of Greece. The Carnival is considered
to be a hyper national celebration, since it has become an attraction
for more and more people despite their financial status or age over the
years.
The celebrations of music, masquerade, dance and colors mark a unique three-week-long period in Greece that dates back to antiquity and the worship of the god Bacchus, or Dionysus, god of wine and celebration in the Eleusinian Mysteries.
Today, there are many different carnival parades going on all over Greece. Hundreds of groups take part in those parades, and anyone who wishes to participate can just join a group.
