The best way to experience the language, the culture, and the traditions of Greece is by surrounding yourself in our art. For centuries, music and dancing have played an integral role in Hellenic traditions, the Hellenic culture, and the Hellenic life. At the Greek Food Festival you will find evidence of that truth, with live musical performances, and dancing performances.
Shopping
Each year thousands flock to the Holy Trinity-Holy Cross Greek Food Festival to enjoy homemade Greek food and pastries and/or watch traditional dances. Often visitors find that shopping can be just as enjoyable. At the Greek Folk Festival you can purchase ornate and historic icons, fine jewelry, religious texts, Greek cooking books (in english), Greek Music CDs, handcrafted items, authentic Greek sailor hats, and more!

Church Tours
For Greek-Americans, the importance of church cannot be overstated. It is a central and powerful force in our lives. Please take the time to go on a tour of our gorgeous cathedral. Festival patrons can engage in both self and guided tours of the Greek Orthodox Church sanctuary. Church members will be available to discuss the church, the icons, and the Greek Orthodox faith, and to answer any questions.
