After the forced postponement of the events due to the pandemic, the Children’s Carnival is here again, to fill with smiles, fun and entertainment the parents, but also the thousands of visitors of the Achaean capital.

Everything is ready for the climax of the Children’s Carnival, which will begin this Sunday.

At the starting point of the Parade, there will be more than 15,000 small carnival-goers with attendants divided into 95 participation groups, surpassing any participation precedent and they will flood the main streets of the city, spreading children’s smiles and hope everywhere.

The Great Parade of the Little Ones will start at 11:00 a.m. from Omonia Square and will follow the route: Gounari – Korinthos (lower part of Georgiou Square) – Korinthos ending and exiting at Ermou and Ag. Nikolaou.

There will be Folk Music, the floats of the Children’s Carnival, in which there are three new ones that will be presented for the first time. These are the “Cipede” (idea, construction: Nektarios Sarigiannis), the “Moon” (idea, construction: Nikos Livanis) and the “Iguana” (idea, construction: Nikos Livanis), while the older “Carnivals” will also be paraded , “Witch”, “Dog” and the two musical chariots. Immediately after, the participation groups will follow, spreading colors, imagination, humor, and endless fun and joy.

Two floats from the participating teams will also appear in the parade. It is worth noting that this year 10 groups from outside Patras are participating in the parade, specifically from Ioannina, Chalandri Attica, Dymi, Kato Achaia, Fraga Achaia, Kato Alissos, Vassiliko, Lakkopetra. Participating primary schools, kindergartens, nurseries, children’s creative employment centers, dance schools, local clubs, KDAP MEA free entries.

At the end of the parade, the established chocolate war of three floats will sweeten young and old, leaving its own special touch.

The Children’s Carnival reaches its creative peak by involving and exciting young and old alike in an inexhaustible river of carnival spirit that will overflow the streets.

Get seats! The unrepeatable celebration of the Little ones is here!
