All Saints' Day (Greek Orthodox)
In the Greek Orthodox tradition, All Saints' Day is commemorated on the first Sunday after Pentecost, not on November 1st. November 1st is not a public holiday in Greece, and most shops and offices will operate as usual. While individuals may visit cemeteries to honor deceased loved ones on various occasions, there is no specific widespread cultural observance or seasonal sweets tied to November 1st in the same way as in some Western Christian countries.
Times and prices change, so check with the organiser before you go. Updated 16 Oct
