Traditional Two-Day Festival & the “Anavrohiaris” Ritual

📍courtyard of the Church, Potamia

In the courtyard of the Church of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary, the ritual dressing of the “Anavrohiaris” will take place.


A procession will follow through the village's narrow streets.

This ritual, held to ward off drought, features the Anavrohiaris dressed in leaves and playfully doused with water by the villagers.


Traditional dance groups and live folk music will accompany the procession throughout.

We warmly invite you to celebrate with us — with dance, music, and heartfelt respect for our traditions!
