The event kicked off in earnest on Saturday, Aug. 30. The festival grounds open at noon each day, welcoming in visitors eager to delight in classic Greek cuisine, dance, music, and more.
And Sunday was no exception — with revelers delighting in Greek such classics as gyro and baklava, trying their hand at traditional Greek dance, and browsing the many authentic Greek goods on sale during the festival.
This year marks the festival’s 76th iteration, and the festival will continue through Monday, Sept. 1. Entry is $5 at the door.
