Channel your inner Zorba and come join the feasting, singing and dancing the weekend of Sept. 6-8. That’s when the Santa Cruz Greek Food & Cultural Festival fills the corner of Church & Center streets with the sound of bouzouki and the aromas of moussaka, spit-roasted lamb, baklava, and of course ouzo!
Easily one of the most enjoyable and authentic street festivals on everybody’s calendar, the Greek Fest offers food, drink, dancing by Greek dance groups from all over the Bay Area, traditional arts and crafts, splendid desserts —baklava, loukoumades, and even a raffle for a trip to Naxos!
Come dance, play, and eat like a Greek – Fri. 5-10, Sat. 11am-10pm, Sun. 12-8pm. You won’t believe how much fun this is!
