Food, Fun and Dance
As a small parish, our goal is to preserve our Greek culture and share it with the Roanoke Valley and the surrounding communities. Our church works very hard to offer our authentic Greek food, delicious pastries, live Greek music, traditional dancing and shopping. You will be surrounded by the sights and sounds of a culture with a deep history and beautiful traditions. We invite you to participate in one of our church tours where you will learn more about our Eastern Orthodox Faith dating back to 33 A.D., the day of Pentecost.
As always, we are deeply grateful for our many volunteers and sponsors. Without their dedication and countless hours of labor, this Festival would not exist. It is to their credit that this wonderful event attracts so many people from across the area and so many ethnicities. Your support and enthusiasm as you eagerly wait each year one of the most anticipated community events brings us great joy in being a part of the Roanoke Valley.
Over the years, we are thankful to the readers of Virginia Living Magazine for voting us Best Food Festival in Southwest Virginia! We couldn’t be more proud of this honor! We thank you for your continued patronage and hope that your time spent this weekend will be most enjoyable and you will understand that we believe in “LIVE LIFE GREEK.”
