Moschato

Moschato (Greek: Μοσχάτο, romanized: Moskháto) is a town and a suburb in the southwestern part of the Athens agglomeration, Greece.

The local fair is held on 6 August every year, festivities starting from the 5th, when the cathedral of Aghia Sotira (Our Christ Saviour) has its religious holiday.

Moschato is known for its Carnival celebrations held every year approximately two weeks before Clean Monday (Kathara Deytera).

Festivities for all ages are held throughout the town and more specific at the Tent (Tenta) that the municipal puts up at the Korai Str.

Teenagers have the opportunity to take part in a large Treasure/Scavenger Hunt (Kinigi toy Chamenou Thisavrou) which takes place in all of Moschato and lasts for the entire two weeks, engaging into games, singing contests, citywide treasure hunts, masquerade competitions and with the chance of winning prizes, trips and many other gifts.
