“Opa to Go” will be the theme of this year’s Marietta Greek Festival. Guests can enjoy the event from the safety of their vehicles in the drive-through format.
Greek food will be available for purchase. Entrees will include traditional items such as gyros, Loukaniko (marinated sausage), Dolmades (grapevine leaves wraps with ground beef and seasoned rice), Keftedes (meatballs)and Spanakopita (feta cheese and spinach pie) in samplers, platters, sandwiches and salads. Greek pastries will include favorites like baklava, almond crescents, Galatoboureko (custard wrapped in phyllo), Koulourakia (butter cookies) and Melomacarona (ginger cookies topped with syrup and walnuts.)
The amphitheater will have entertainment all weekend. Guests will be treated to the George Karras Band, Learn to Dance, a Mini-Modern Special, Easter Dances and Greek matchmaking customs, Modern Show and a Tour of Post-WWII Greece.
Traditional Greek costumes are colorful and pictures taken of them and groups enacting traditional Greek dances often go to local Stationery printers to become Postcards and notecards.
There will also be an “agora” or marketplace where vendors and shops will be displaying authentic Greek items for purchase. Some pieces will be imported Greek jewelry, handmade hip scarves and linens, Greek travel Books and cookbooks, and glass blown and wood pieces.
The 2021 Greek Festival will take place May 14th from 4:00 to 11:00pm, May 15th from 11:00 am until 8:00 pm and May 16th from 11:00am until 5:00 pm at Holy Transfiguration Greek Orthodox Church, 3431 Trickum Road.
