The Carnival of Patras is undoubtedly the highlight of the year for the whole city, which is being prepared whole months for it, and in those days it brings together a multitude of people from all over the country, but also abroad, looking forward to dressing up with a group, or just going out of the city and just going out of the city!

Pictures and videos from this outdoor party go up on social media and give the pulse of a city that knows how to celebrate.

Shortly after the end of a carnival, and after the impressive fireworks in the Achaic sky mark the end of the events, preparations for the next begin! Yes, you read well.

The Municipality of Patras, without wasting time, begins early in the carnival workshop preparations for the tanks and carnival heroes of the next season. Usually the people who articulate the tanks are inspired by persons of Greek mythology, but also by the faces or incidents of the news, but this changes according to the needs and developments that arise.

So, in their workshop they make the tanks of the parade for the following year with care and carefully.
With more than 50,000 carnivalists in the city’s parades, thousands of visitors who flood Patras in those days to live closely with this unique experience, and television networks from every corner of the country, the Patriotic Carnival magnetizes the eyes of everyone, and we will be almost awkward and we all look at what to do.

With a lot of humor, caustic mood and eroticism, every chariot tells a different story, and gives color to the bustling streets of the city, which in those days remains alert! Young and old, patriots and tourists become a great company and celebrate the crowded shops in the crowded shops, and after the carnival is over, they renew their appointment for the following year.

The camera of “where there is Greece” on SKAI pierced the carnival workshop of the Municipality of Patras, and gave us a little taste of the chariots we will see in 2026. King Carnival will be the god Dionysus, who has been identified with the feast and wine, two of the elements that Patras knows very well. Get ready for unlikely uniforms, imaginative chariots and crazy spree in the straits of the Achaic capital. The carnival is preparing feverishly!

Will you lose it?
