Thessaloniki Greece Carnival 2025 - Disco Dance & Celebration!

Get ready for a blast of color, music, and pure carnival energy! Thessaloniki’s Carnival Parade wrapped up, and what a spectacle it was!

This was only the second year of the event, but it has already made a name for itself. Last year, the parade was a grassroots celebration, powered by the city's creative spirit. There were no official sponsors, no big names backing it—just thousands of passionate Thessalonians determined to bring carnival culture to their city.

But this year? Everything changed. The Municipality of Thessaloniki embraced the event, officially supporting it and giving it the push it needed to become a major cultural happening. With thousands of participants, lively music, and a massive disco party, this year’s carnival felt like the beginning of something truly big.

So, if you missed it—don’t worry! We’re about to take you through the highlights of Thessaloniki Carnival 2025!

The Carnival Parade Takes Over Thessaloniki 🎭🎶

It all started at 4 PM sharp at the White Tower, Thessaloniki’s iconic waterfront landmark. But long before the official start, the excitement was already building. From 2 PM, the costumed carnivalists gathered, filling the streets with laughter, vibrant colors, and anticipation.

As the parade set off, 35+ thematic groups marched through the heart of the city, with no floats, no vehicles—just pure energy and creativity! This wasn’t just a parade; it was a moving work of art, a celebration of movement, music, and self-expression.


📍 Route: Ethnikis Amynis → Tsimiski → Venizelou → Leoforos Nikis

The rhythm of live percussion bands from Northern Greece echoed through the city, setting a high-energy pulse that pushed the parade forward. Dancers twirled, performers engaged the crowd, and waves of color flooded the streets as thousands of spectators joined in the fun.

But the real showstopper? The moment the parade reached Tsimiski & Aristotelous, where dance schools had prepared an incredible choreographed performance. For a few magical moments, the city streets transformed into a massive open-air stage, with synchronized movements blending tradition, modern dance, and carnival madness!

By the time the procession reached Leoforos Nikis, the sun was beginning to set—but the night was far from over…
