New Playground at Pedion tou Areos Park
Thanks to the donation of a private individual who chose to remain anonymous, a new, modern, and fully accessible playground was created at Pedion tou Areos Park. This formerly neglected space has now been revitalized with new infrastructure, high-quality play equipment, upgraded lighting, and a safe, inclusive design that welcomes all children. This initiative is part of the Municipality of Thessaloniki’s broader effort to provide functional, safe, and accessible play spaces throughout the city’s neighborhoods.
Reconstruction of the Playground and Redevelopment of Kaoudi Square
The complete reconstruction of the playground and the overall redevelopment of the surrounding area at Kaoudi Square, in the 5th Municipal District, were made possible thanks to the generous donation of Giorgos and Zoi Papageorgiou. This intervention significantly contributed to the creation of a safe, well-designed, and functional space for children and families in the neighborhood, enhancing social cohesion and quality of life in a historic area of the city. The donation stands as a meaningful example of civic responsibility and contribution to the common good.
Tseliou Playground
The playground, named “Neni’s Joy,” was constructed with a private donation. The space was enclosed with a new wall and fencing and outfitted with certified play equipment, safety rubber flooring, and urban furniture including benches, a drinking fountain, waste bin, and signage.
We invite you, through the “I Participate in My City” program, to support initiatives that improve daily life and make Thessaloniki more sustainable, friendly, functional, and resilient.
