One of Greece’s standout open-air events, it turns Loutraki into a hub of music, art, and outdoor experiences. Thousands enjoy live concerts, nature activities, and food stalls, with Greek and international performers.

Pozaritika is a major event held on the last weekend of August — a four-day celebration featuring dances from across Greece and the Balkans. In the open-air spaces of Loutraki, dance troupes, musicians, and locals come together for a vibrant gathering with traditional costumes, live orchestras, and circle dances late into the night. The event honors local identity while uniting visitors and residents in a memorable summer reunion.

Alongside the dancing, you’ll find local tastings and small producers showcasing regional specialties — a warm introduction to Almopia’s hospitality and spirit.

An institution that has been a point of reference for our village for many years. Come and taste boiled and roasted chestnuts, and dance together to the traditional rhythms of the local brass bands.

An event dedicated to tsipouro, featuring fine distillates, local delicacies, music, and plenty of cheer. It takes place every year in Piperia, Almopia — a village located just 3 km from Aridaia. Local producers present tsipouro from small distilleries, spicy meze, and recipes highlighting the famous peppers of the region. Live music and dancing complete the experience, showcasing the rich agri-food culture of Almopia.

Taste the flavors of the season, meet the producers, and discover authentic local products in a warm and festive atmosphere.

In Garefi, the celebrated Karatzovite pepper takes center stage with tastings, live cooking, and music. Cooks and cultural groups prepare dishes starring the pepper, while exhibitors showcase pepper products and recipes. The event is framed by traditional dances and songs that carry the village’s celebratory vibe.

It’s the perfect chance to get to know one of the area’s emblematic products through performances, local stories, and authentic flavors.

Held in early October in Orma and Lykostomo only, honoring the chestnut harvest with roasted chestnuts, local wines, and seasonal dishes. Folk music, dancing, and outdoor markets complete this authentic autumn experience. At the beginning of the month, the Christmas tree lighting ceremony takes place in the central square.
