- Live music all weekend
- Traditional Greek dancing
- Marketplace & shopping

1. Authentic Greek Cuisine: The former church parking area has been transformed into a food court with numerous vendors offering a variety of dishes. You should be prepared for long lines.
2. All-Day Dance Performances: In previous years, there have been Greek battle dances, folk dances, traditional dances, and high-energy Cretan dances. You can pick up the performance schedule at the entrance of the indoor performance hall.
3. Greek Handicrafts: Available in a large indoor room, with reasonably priced items.
4. If you arrive early, street parking is available (see the map for no-parking zones). If you arrive late, consider using a parking garage ($20 per entry).


2024年门票涨价到八刀。没有感受到很强烈的希腊文化。进去之后主要是教堂里小演员们的名族舞蹈免费观看,其他的都要单独收费。吃的地方排队太长。小孩子玩的项目需要单独收费。
I loved the traditional Greek dance. It gave me a sense of a different culture and was an unforgettable experience. The energy and music really brought their rich heritage to life. However, the wait time at the food stalls was too long.
The Greek festival is so fantastic!
