Falliforia 2025 In Athens
Participants dress up during the Falliforia or Fallagogia, an ancient Greek festival honoring the god Dionysus with an orgiastic character. The Falliforia takes place in various cities of ancient Greece, with Athens and the rural areas surrounding it being the most well-known. It is likely part of the Dionysia, the great festivals in honor of Dionysus, and especially the Anthesteria, an Athenian celebration that marks the arrival of spring and fertility.
