Athens Halloween Festival returns with Corpse Bride creators

The Athens Halloween Festival is scheduled to return to the Old Garage (Palaio Amaksostasio) in Gazi from October 30 to November 1, 2026. Following a previous edition that drew over 18,000 visitors, the event aims to expand its programming.

A major highlight of the 2026 festival is the appearance of Carlos and Jordi Grangel, the creators behind the animated film ‘Corpse Bride’, who will visit Greece for the first time as special guests.

The three-day event will feature a Halloween Market with over 80 vendors and artists selling merchandise, books, comics, and collectibles. Other scheduled activities include a Horror Museum, an Escape Room, pumpkin carving, themed workshops, makeup sessions, and horror film screenings.
