Kledonas Festival 2026 at Naoussa Paros
An open-air, nostalgic greek folk night.
Το περίφημο πανηγύρι του Κλήδονα στην Νάουσα της Πάρου. Μουσική, χορός, παραδοσιακοί μεζέδες και άφθονο κρασί, πλαισιώνουν το άναμμα της φωτιάς, στην οποία καίγονται τα πρωτομαγιάτικα στεφάνια, και το άνοιγμα του "Κλήδονα", για να επιδοθούν, στη συνέχεια, οι νέοι και τα παιδιά, στα άλματα, που διώχνουν τα κακά πνεύματα, σύμφωνα με την παράδοση.
