The
Pensacola Greek Festival is one the area's most popular outdoor festivals.
This 3 day cultural event provides an opportunity for our church to
share or culture and faith with the Pensacola community. The Festival
is usually held over the Veterans Day weekend in November on church grounds
under large tents and includes live bouzouki music, dance performance
by the youth dance groups, a variety of delicious Greek foods and tours
of our church.
The Festival is truly a labor of love by our parishioners. Months of
preparation goes into the planning and presentation of this event. In
addition to Greek cuisine, music and dance, we want to highlight our
Orthodox faith. Festival guests are invited to tours of the Church which
include explanations of traditional Orthodox architecture, music and
worship.
A portion of this year's proceeds will be given to Covenant Hospice of Northwest Florida.
The rest of the proceeds are used to build the church
scholarship fund, capital expansion fund and other church needs.
Several local organizations volunteer their time each year to work at
our festival. For information on how you can get involved and be Greek
for a weekend, please contact the church office.
