The 59th Hidden Treasure Game | Patras Carnival 2024
The Hidden Treasure Game has long been the beating heart of the Patras Carnival — a tradition defined by suspense, wit, luck, knowledge, cunning, inventiveness, creativity, speed, and above all, teamwork. According to the organizing team, each edition revolves around a central thematic concept that highlights the unique character of the game. This year’s overarching theme: “Don’t disturb my circles” set the tone for a circular journey of extroversion, participation, and continuity.
The poster for the 59th Hidden Treasure Game, designed by Alexis Sakellaropoulos, celebrates these carnival paths. Like a glowing retro dance floor, it encircles the city, symbolizing the game’s twists and turns, its fast pace, and its ongoing legacy. Along the curves of this route, tiny carnival floats and enigmatic details are hidden — each a clue, a symbol, a marker of the playful chase, charting their own course like true treasure hunters.
