In Lesbos, a bull is sacrificed, a vestige of the pre-Christian traditions that still exist in the villages of Agia Paraskevi and Pigi.

In Lesbos, the bull festival is organized in the village of Agia Paraskevi on the last weekend of June or the first weekend of July, and in the village of Pigi on the second weekend of July. A bull is sacrificed, a remnant of the pre-Christian sacrifices and a pagan custom that still exists. For two days, celebrations are organized around horse beauty contests, with dances and horse demonstrations. After the sacrifice of the bull, the traditional kiskeki - meat and wheat porridge - is prepared in large cauldrons and shared among villagers.
