Yes. From basic sacrifices to elaborate multi-day religious festivals, the Greeks had numerous and highly involved religious celebrations. In fact, the Athenian festival the Dionysia (the Second most important religious festival of the Athenian year, in honor of Dionysus) has continued to have a major impact on Western culture to this day. It was at this festival that the dramatic competitions in honor of Dionysus (he was the God of drama among other things) were held and thus it was the first large scale venue for dramatic work in history. All of the extant tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides and all of the extant comedies of Aristophenes were performed at this festival.
Dionysus is the god of wine and fertility. In Angitone, he is referred to because he was a huge part of the Greek theatre during this time. There was the festival of Dionysus held each spring. Spring was chosen because it is a season of fertility.
