After our Easter Season, the Greek Festivals in California start up this month bringing you fine food and activities for the entire family. We kick -off with many churches celebrating in Northern California. Stop by any of these churches in your travels and you will find traditional Greek food, dancing and drinks! Join the Greek communities across the state, and “Be Greek” for the day!
