1Easter Week Traditions (Spring, before high season)
Although Easter occasionally overlaps with the tourist season, in most years it’s a shoulder-season celebration—and Greece’s most important religious holiday.
Holy Week is filled with customs: solemn processions, midnight church services, the cracking of red-dyed eggs, and the Easter Sunday feast of spit-roasted lamb. Experiencing Easter in Greece means sharing in centuries-old rituals that bind communities together, making it one of the richest cultural immersions available outside the summer months.
