In this paper, we analyze explosive synchronization in networks with a community structure. The results of our study indicate that the mesoscopic structure of the networks could affect the synchronization of coupled oscillators. With the variation of three parameters, the degree probability distribution exponent, the community size probability distribution exponent, and the mixing parameter, we could have a fast or slow phase transition. Besides, in some cases, we could have communities which are synchronized inside but not with other communities and vice versa. We also show that there is a limit in these mesoscopic structures which suppresses the transition from the second-order phase transition and results in explosive synchronization. This could be considered as a tuning parameter changing the transition of the system from the second order to the first order.
