In ancient Greece, there were no specific festivals exclusively dedicated to Perseus. However, he was celebrated in various local cults and myths, particularly in Argos and Seriphos, where his stories were prominent. Some festivals honoring gods like Athena and Zeus, to whom Perseus was linked, may have included references to his myths. Additionally, his heroic deeds were often recounted in theatrical performances and cultural events celebrating Greek mythology.

I wouldn't say that Perseus has any obvious symbols but my guess is that Pegasus is best affiliated with Perseus because Pegasus was born when Medusa was slain by Perseus. Pegasus sprang from Medusa's blood. I gave it a shot :-)
Polydectes: who Perseus offered any bride gift to, as he didn't have one. Polydectes was King of the island upon which Perseus and his mother resided on, and Polydectes took advantage of the offer to send Perseus away so to woe his mother.
No, Perseus was a mortal. actually Perseus was a demigod (half god and half mortal) his father is Zeus and mother is Danae(a mortal)
Most of this festivals is around Carnivals themes
Yes, Perseus is known by several other names in various cultures and mythologies. In some traditions, he is referred to as "Perseus the Slayer" or "Perseus the Hero" due to his legendary feats, including the slaying of Medusa. Additionally, in Roman mythology, he is sometimes associated with the name "Perseus of Argos," highlighting his connection to the city of Argos in Greece.
No, Perseus is not the son Poseidon. Perseus was the son of Zeus.
