CORFU. Corfu Town was filled with joyful music and colours on Sunday evening with the opening of the Corfu Carnival.
The celebrations began in the pedestrian precinct and ended in Liston for the opening ceremony. The Central Corfu and Diapontia Islands Mayor Meropi Ydraiou gave a brief welcome address and then the fun began with young and old joining in the celebrations!
