Gyro lovers, rejoice. Little Rock’s beloved International Greek Food Festival will return this fall to give locals the taste they’ve been missing.
Set for Oct. 3-4, the 2025 fest will once again be held at the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church on Napa Valley Drive. The full event last took place in 2019, then streamlined to a drive-thru format for social distancing purposes from 2020-2022.
With this year’s return to in-person festivities, guests can expect live entertainment, family-friendly activities and the expansive spread of Greek eats the fest has been serving up for more than 40 years.

“For so many families in central Arkansas, the Greek Food Festival is more than just an event, it’s a tradition,” festival chair Jason Alley says. “We’re thrilled to welcome everyone back to enjoy everything that makes this festival so special.”
Part of what makes it special is its commitment to giving back to the community. As is tradition, the fest will again donate proceeds to a handful of local charities and nonprofits: Ronald McDonald House Charities of Arkansas, Youth Home and Community Connections, as well as the Annunciation Scholarship Foundation and Annunciation Ministries.
Festival hours will be 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. both days and admission is free. Trolley service will run to the Asbury United Methodist Church and Mountaire parking lots.
