The Festival of Dionysus, held in ancient Athens, was not founded by a single individual but evolved over time. It was dedicated to Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, fertility, and theater. The festival became a significant cultural event in the 6th century BCE, with contributions from various leaders, including the tyrant Peisistratus, who organized it and helped formalize its structure by introducing competitions in dramatic performances.
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.
