Hello Kidslovegreece. We were wondering if there is a Halloween period in Greece.
Quote from Our Trip Planner Response on 29/09/2021, 14:47Hi. Greece does not celebrate Halloween at all and people do not dress up in costumes and go trick-or-treating on October 31st. The only reason that they know that it is celebrated in America and other countries is because of movies and television.
There are many other holidays in Greece that involve dressing up in costumes, but none of them are celebrated in October.
The closest to Halloween is Apokries (the Greek Mardi Gras). Apokries in Greece is the carnival season that begins around ten weeks prior to Greek Orthodox Easter and finishes on Clean Monday. The dates vary every year.
