Winchester Greek Festival

The Annual Winchester Greek Festival will take place on Saturday, August 19th, and Sunday, August 20th, 2023.
Sample our legendary Greek cuisine and experience our renowned Greek music and dance. Truly great fun for the entire family! A large selection of tasty Greek food is available including roasted lamb, gyros, moussaka, pastitsio, and a large variety Greek pastries.
Greek cooking offers an incredibly rich and diverse array of foods that are the culmination of literally thousands of years of good living, cooking, and eating.

While each Greek menu item offered is fresh and inviting, it is also a culinary trip to Greece. Our talented parishioners work for days in advance of the festival creating the delicious Greek food and pastries.

Greek retail vendors will also be set up to display their various items for purchase.
Admission is free and ample free parking is available. The festival will take place rain or shine.

We strongly encourage coming early for the best selection of food and pastries!
