From October 25th to October 30th 2023, the "Flower of Inclusion" Judo festival is more than an athletic event. It is a cultural celebration that includes athletes of all ages with disabilities, as well as young athletes U17 without disabilities(mainstream).

This festival has it all: Judo competitions, excursions to famous archeological monuments (e.g. Ancient Olympia and the International Olympic Academy premises), competitions, entertainment activities and, finally, the unique experience of crossing the Isthmus Canal cruise!

The organizer and operator is the Hellenic Judo Veterans Society, in collaboration with "INCLUDE" Organization of Thessaloniki.

The event is under the auspices of Loutraki-Perachora-Agioi Theodoroi Municipality and Hellenic Judo Veterans Society.

The competition categories are Judo weight categories combined with skill level categories (screening process), while the athletic equipment is Judogi.

The athletes without disabilities will familiarize with the spirit of the competition and coexistence with diversity, while the athletes with disabilities will enjoy the atmosphere of acceptance.

All will benefit from the combination of Sports,Cultural Events and Recreation and from the socialization between different nationalities and degrees of human ability.
