Practical Santorini guide
Santorini Festivals & Events
Santorini’s calendar includes religious festivals, cultural events, sports events and seasonal celebrations.
Panigyria
Religious feast days can include church services, food, music and community celebrations. They are living traditions, not performances staged solely for visitors.
Cultural events
Municipal and local organisations publish concerts, exhibitions and performances, especially during the warmer months.
Ifaisteia
Volcano-themed celebrations have become associated with Santorini’s modern event calendar; dates and formats can change.
How to find current events
Because dates change every year, check the Municipality of Thira’s current event listings and local notices shortly before your visit rather than relying on an old annual calendar.
