Last Year's Greek Fest

Festivals have been a religious and cultural tradition of Greek society since Ancient times. Primarily held to honor or receive favour from the gods or to celebrate the changing of the seasons, this ancient rite was characterized by music, dance, athletic competitions, wine, and of course, food. It was an excuse for the entire community to join and celebrate the ideals of family, friendship and philoxenia generosity towards strangers. The most famous of the ancient festivals was the Olympic Games.

And so we bring you our Annual Greek Summer Festival an opportunity to share our Hellenic culture with our fellow Victorians. And when something works, why change it? So, this festival, too, is about music, dance, wine and food!
