4The Easter Celebrations
Corfu is famous for its vibrant Easter celebrations, which blend religious traditions with colorful customs and festivities. One of the most spectacular events is the “pot throwing” ceremony on Holy Saturday, where residents throw clay pots from their balconies to symbolize the renewal of life. The Easter Sunday procession through Corfu Town, with its marching bands and religious icons, is a sight to behold and a testament to the island’s deep-rooted religious heritage.
