Looking for something to do this weekend? Look no further than the 30th Annual Greek Festival taking place in the Exposition Center of the N.C. State Fairgrounds Sept. 16-18. Times are: Friday the 16th from 5 – 10 PM; Saturday the 17th 11AM – 10 PM and Sunday the 18th 11AM – 7PM.

Hosted by the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church of Raleigh, this festival is guaranteed to be as authentic as they come. For the completely affordable admission price of $3, you’ll get to taste handmade Greek food made from recipes that have been passed down for generations, listen to live Greek music, and watch traditional Greek dance performances. The Church family has pulled from the artistic, historic and cultural richness of their Greek heritage to share it  with you and your family or friends.

If the whole family is coming along, seniors and teens are admitted for only $2, and children under 13 are absolutely free. Proceeds will be donated to Habitat for Humanity of Wake County. This is a great, low-cost opportunity to explore authentic Greek culture and, eat some Spanakopita, Gyros or Baklava. For additional information on the Menu, click HERE.
