Limassol Selects Best 'Pellomaska' — Carnival Costumes with Humor and Satire
With imagination, humor, and a sharp satirical touch, the participants of the Pellomaska competition became the true stars of the traditional 'Tuesday Dance,' held on February 17, 2026, at the Limassol Medieval Castle Square. This was announced by the city municipality.
In the 'Pellomaska' category, awards were given to costumes titled 'Φως-κωλος', 'Η Μοντέρνα Καφετζού' ('Modern Fortune Teller'), and 'Influencers'. Honorable mentions were awarded by the jury to the characters 'Χωρεί με η τρύπα του βελονιού' ('Will I fit through the eye of a needle?') and 'Τα μυαλά που κουβαλάς' ('Inside Out').
The witty and inventive transformations brought waves of laughter to the audience and once again highlighted the unique spirit of the Limassol Carnival — one of the most vibrant and beloved festivals on the island.
