EVENT UPDATE We're so grateful for all your love and support during these times. To keep our community safe we will be taking Greek Fest TO-GO. Stay tuned for the new dates that will be coming soon and we would really appreciate you sharing with friends.

2020 marks the 60th Anniversary of The Fresno Greek Festival - a celebration our community has been busy planning and preparing toward for many months. However, the safety and well-being of our guests and team members are, and have always been, our main priority and concern. With the advent of COVID-19 we have monitored all California public health orders issued by the State, County, and City and are complying accordingly. With that in mind, our celebration this year will not... take place in August and instead will take the form of a drive thru or TO-GO event! A variety of favorites will be prepared, including some new menu items (some we’ve wanted to showcase for a very long time)! Preparations are under way to make this unique approach as seamless as possible. The new dates will be announced later in the year due to the challenges of social distancing for preparation. Our website (fresnogreekfest.com) will feature details and safety precautions as soon as they are confirmed. We will be providing updates as they are available. Stay tuned! See more

A new kind of OPA! YES! Fresno Greek Fest will be held in 2020! YES! It will be different. YES! Wonderful food!... YES, we are planning new ways to make our 60th a wonderful celebration while providing the safety we all need. Stay tuned. As details are finalized we will share how you can celebrate with us!

While tourists mostly think of the islands, most Greeks actually live in the capital or Thessaloniki! fresnogreekfest.com About 40% of the total population lives in Athens. Some of them also work on the islands during summer, but many of them live in Athens.

Wishing everybody a very Happy Mother's Day from all of us at Fresno Greek Fest!

Many people visit Greece because it has such an interesting history! Some people don’t realize how truly ancient Greece is though! One of the fun facts of Greece is that the city of Athens has been populated for over 7,000 years! fresnogreekfest.com

Happy Cinco de Mayo from all of us at Fresno Greek Fest!

Did you know that there are more than 2000 islands in Greece? That’s a lot of islands, but only 170 of them are populated. The other islands are uninhabited.
