Vaping at Greek Festivals | Guide 2026
Ban on disposable vape in Greece?
Currently, there is no official ban on disposable (single-use) vapes in Greece. However, there is pressure at the European level to tighten regulation and restrict the distribution of single-use nicotine products, due to their impact on public health and the environment.
Are e-liquid pods allowed?
Yes, e-cigarette pods that comply with European legislation (TPD) are allowed. This means:
- Maximum pods capacity: 2 ml
- Maximum nicotine content: 20 mg/ml
- Mandatory labeling with health warnings
What about vaping at festivals?
