Aris FC (which means "Aris Football Club") is a professional football team from Thessaloniki, Greece. It is the most famous and successful club in the city. The team plays in the top Greek league, called Super League Greece, and their home stadium is the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium.
The club was started in 1914. It was one of the first teams to join the Macedonian Football Clubs Association and the Hellenic Football Federation. Aris's colors are golden/yellow and black. Yellow represents the history of Macedonia and the city of Thessaloniki. The club is named after Ares, the ancient Greek "God of War," who was known for courage. His image is on the club's logo, based on a famous sculpture called Ludovisi Ares. Aris is considered one of the biggest teams in Greece and is part of a larger sports club called Aris Thessaloniki.
Aris was a very strong and popular team in Greece between the two World Wars. They have won the Greek championship three times (in 1928, 1932, and 1946). They also won the Greek Cup once in 1970. Aris had an amazing record in European games, staying undefeated at home for 28 matches from 1968 until 2020. That year, they lost to Kolos Kovalivka, but there were no fans in the stadium due to the COVID pandemic.

Club History: Key Moments
Early Days and First Wins (1920s-1940s)

Aris Football Club was founded on March 25, 1914, by 22 young friends in Thessaloniki. They named the club Aris after the Greek god of war. This name was chosen because of the recent Balkan Wars (1912–1913), when Greece fought for its freedom. Aris has a big rivalry with another team called PAOK.
At first, there was no professional football league in Greece. Instead, three smaller leagues existed in Macedonia, Athens, and Piraeus. The champions of these leagues would play in a mini-tournament to decide the national champion. Aris won its first regional championship in Macedonia in 1923.
In 1926, the club changed its name to "Athletic Club Aris Thessaloniki" to include other sports besides football.
Aris won its first Greek Championship in 1928. They beat Atromitos and Ethnikos Piraeus in the final matches. The coach was Thomas Kessler from Germany. Key players included Kostas Vikelidis and Nikos Aggelakis.
The second championship came in 1932. Aris played against strong teams like Olympiacos and Panathinaikos. They won with 22 points, four more than Panathinaikos. They had big wins, like 7–0 against Panathinaikos. New star players like Kitsios and Bogdanos joined the team.
In the same year, the Greek Cup competition started. Aris reached the final but lost 5–3 to AEK Athens.
Aris won their third championship in 1946. They played against AEK from Athens and Olympiacos from Piraeus. Aris beat Olympiacos twice and defeated AEK 4–1 in Thessaloniki. Since the main First Division started in 1959, Aris has not won another championship. Before 1959, Aris won the Macedonian division 14 times.
Modern Era and European Games (1950s-1980s)
During this time, Aris built its own home stadium, the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium. It was named after the famous player Kleanthis Vikelidis. The stadium was built in the Charilaou area of Thessaloniki, starting in 1951.
In 1959, the new, unified Greek Championship was created. Aris was one of the first Greek teams to play in European tournaments. They had strong teams with players like Alexandros Alexiades, Giorgos Pantziaras, and Takis Loukanidis.
Winning the 1970 Greek Cup
Aris played very well in the 1960s and 1970s. Their biggest success was winning the Greek Cup in 1970. They beat their big rival, PAOK, in the final match at Kaftanzoglio Stadium.
In the 1970s, Aris brought in many talented young players from Thessaloniki. These included Kouis, Foiros, and Zindros. A major achievement was their successful UEFA Cup campaign in 1980. Aris beat famous teams like Benfica and Perugia. They were the first Greek club to win a game in both Italy and Portugal. In Greece, Aris finished tied for first place with Olympiacos in the 1980 league season. However, they lost the championship title in a special tie-breaker game.
Tough Times and Comebacks (1980s-2014)
After the mid-1980s, many of Aris's older, respected players retired. The club then faced a difficult period. They often struggled to qualify for European leagues or finish high in the Greek League. They also had serious money problems, which almost led to bankruptcy. Aris was relegated to the Second Division in 1997 and 2005. But both times, they managed to quickly return to the top division.
Around 2006, a group called the "Aris Members' Society" was formed to help manage the club. After this, Aris qualified for the UEFA Europa League several times. They finished fourth in the Super League three times. They also reached the Greek Cup Final four times, losing in 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2010. In 2010, an amazing 25,000 Aris fans traveled to Athens for the final. This was one of the biggest movements of fans in Greece ever.
In the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League, Aris made history by playing in Europe after Christmas for the first time. They had a great performance in the group stage, beating the defending champions Atlético Madrid both at home and away. The club also started its own radio station, Aris FM 92.8, in December 2009. This helped fans connect and stay updated on club news. In 2014, due to more financial issues, Aris was relegated to the third tier of Greek football.
Recent Years: Rebuilding and Return (2014-Present)

After being relegated in 2014, many wondered who would lead the team. American businessman Alex Kalas took charge for the first season, but the team did not get promoted. In summer 2015, Kalas promised more money and signed several new players. These included Honduran legend Carlos Costly and Spanish defender Raul Bravo. However, Aris still did not get promoted, and Kalas was replaced.
Fans were very upset when the Greek Football Federation did not allow Aris to be promoted to a higher league. Thousands of fans protested in Thessaloniki in August 2015. These protests sometimes led to clashes with the police.
After new elections, Theodoros Karipidis became the head of the football department. He quickly signed many new players, including former Aris player Andreas Tatos and club legend Sergio Koke. Nikos Anastopoulos was appointed as the manager. In the 2015–16 season, Aris finally won promotion to the second division of Greece, finishing 21 points ahead of the second-place team. Later, Irini Karipidou became the main owner of the club.
Aris Supporters
Aris has a large fan base across all parts of Thessaloniki and Greece. Their biggest rivalry is with PAOK. Matches against PAOK are known as the "Derby of Thessaloniki" and divide the city. Aris also has rivalries with major Athens clubs like Panathinaikos, AEK Athens, and Olympiakos Piraeus.
Aris's main fan club is called Super 3. It was started in 1988 and has a bulldog as its symbol. There are over 50 Super 3 clubs across Greece and Europe, with between 12,000 and 20,000 members. Some polls suggest Aris is the 5th most popular team in Greece, with about 500,000 fans. This is a large number, especially since the club has not won many titles in recent decades.
In the 2010 Greek Cup final against Panathinaikos, 27,000 Aris fans traveled to Athens. This was described as the largest movement of away supporters in Greek history.
The club's official song, Aris Victorious, was written in 1926.
Club Identity: Crest and Colors
Crest Evolution
The name of the club, Aris, was inspired by Ares, the ancient Greek "God of War." This choice came after Greece's military successes in the Balkan Wars and the liberation of Thessaloniki in 1912. The team's emblem shows a resting Ares, just like in the famous Ludovisi Ares sculpture. This emblem was chosen in the late 1970s, replacing an older, simpler logo used since 1914. In the 2000s, a Greek pattern called a meander was added to the crest.
The team's main colors are yellow or gold, which represent glory and are important in the history of Macedonia. Black is also a key color. Sometimes, white or dark red uniforms are used as alternative colors. In the 2000s, the club also introduced a shade of lime green.
