Come on out to enjoy the delicious Greek food and pastries, shop the marketplace vendors, have fun on the rides, enjoy a kafedaki from our cafe and dance the night away with the awesome entertainment we booked for the fest! Back by popular demand the Greek band Rythmos takes the stage on Saturday & Sunday and Chicago’s Hottest Modern Country Band In The Stix rocks the stage on Friday. See you there! OPA!

 

Shop the styles of Greece at the Greek Marketplace where clothing, gifts and religious items are offered for sale by local vendors.

Greek dancers have practiced all year and the groups will showcase their skills and their heritage in traditional village costumes at the festival. Folk dancing has been lost in many countries – Greece being an exception, festivals such as this keep dancing and other aspects of the Greek culture alive.
Food offered for sale includes gyros, a savory pita filled with strips of lamb & beef and topped with tomatoes, onions and special cucumber sauce. Souvlaki, pork and chicken shish kabobs marinated in lemon, olive oil and spices and grilled to perfection.
Enjoy Greek delicacies and pastries such as baklava, kataifi, spanakopita, rice pudding and much, much more.
