Located on the edge of Corfu Town, the neighborhood of Kotsela hosts one of the most spirited celebrations on July 13th. This festival honors the miracle of St. Spyridon, the island’s protector.

Kotsela is known for its tight-knit community, and this “Panigiri” reflects that energy. It is an urban festival that retains its traditional village heart. Expect the streets to be filled with long tables, the sound of local orchestras playing “Kalami” folk music, and the smell of charcoal-grilled meats. For those staying in the capital, Kotsela offers an authentic experience without the need for a long drive, allowing you to “Discover Corfu” like a local.
