Carnival for children in Athens

Carnival is the celebration of children and the Municipality of Athens is trying to make children from 4 years old and their families live for 15 days their own Halloween story, create, play and have fun, in all the political spaces of OPANDA.

The Culture, Sports and Youth Organization of the Municipality of Athens (OPANDA), which oversees the program, opens from February 16 to March 5, all its cultural spaces, the Museums, the Art Gallery, the Creative Learning Centers, the Libraries, the Arts Center and the “Melina” Cultural Center and offers a multitude of creative Halloween programs and activities for our little friends and the whole family. Workshops in visual arts, musical movement, storytelling, theatrical play, guided tours, museum-pedagogical programs, children’s theater performances and caroling, promise to spread countless children’s smiles!
