6th Bike Carnival
Thursday 12 February 2015
The Bike Carnival held every "Tsiknopempti" a special Thursday at Winter in Thessaloniki with the aim of marrying the tradition of Carnival, with revival of the tradition of cycling in Greece.
There is a great parade of masked cyclists and pedestrians, with thematic carnival groups and carnival floats symbolic and satirical character, accompanied by King and Queen of Carnival.
After the parade follows a crazy celebration street party for all citizens, with plenty of wine, food, video screenings, live music, dj sets, carousel, stilt walkers and other surprises until sunrise, and also the traditional burning of King Carnival.
