Arillas has a live community of local people that act together to organize local folklore and music festivals in various public places in Arillas.
This page will be keeping you in touch with all of our Local Folklore Events all year round.

Arillas Business Association, Arillas Cultural Initiative and Arillas & Kavadades football Union are calling on the Corfu Mayors, local public organisations, cultural and sports societies, organisations and local councils and the media for the creation of a walking trails to promote the local sights.
Their keywords are: Protection of the Environment, Cultural Heritage, Cleanliness and Sustainable Development, Trekking Tourism.
In a statement they issued they say the following:
"An idea and proposal combining all of the above. There are 138 villages in Corfu and almost as many local councils and cultural and sports societies. In each village there are one or more 'treasures' that are worth seeing and discovering.
This could be called a Treasure Hunt. This proposal has no local or time limitations.
