It's a time when the island feels most authentic, inviting newcomers to embrace its rhythm of life.

Corfu Garden Festival

One of the highlights of spring in Corfu is the Corfu Garden Festival, an event that brings together garden enthusiasts, artists, and nature lovers from all over. We are big fans of this event and make it a tradition to visit every year! The festival showcases the island's most beautiful gardens, offering interesting workshops, expert talks, and plenty of inspiration for those who love nature. This year, we are especially excited because our colleagues Sarah and Christina will be showcasing their gardens, featuring a stunning blend of native Corfiot plants and creative landscaping ideas. We invite all our readers, clients, and friends to visit the festival and experience the breathtaking gardens. It's a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in Corfu's natural beauty and get inspiration for your own outdoor space.

Easter

Spring in our island wouldn't be complete without Greek Easter - the most spectacular and deeply rooted tradition. Corfu's Easter celebrations are renowned throughout Greece for their unique blend of Orthodox rituals, Venetian influences, and vibrant local customs. From the heart-touching Holy Week processions to the dramatic "botides" tradition where clay pots are thrown from balconies on Holy Saturday to symbolise renewal - it's a breathtaking experience. The island is alive with the music of philharmonic bands and festive gatherings where families and friends come together to celebrate. For those considering making Corfu their home, experiencing Easter here is a true insight into the island's rich culture and warm community spirit.
