About The Denver Greek Festival
The Denver Greek Festival is proudly one of Colorado’s longest running cultural events. This year, 2018, will be our 53rd year attracting over 25,000 attendees, making us one of the largest cultural festivals in Colorado. We are honored to invite you to our event happening June 15-17 at The Assumption of the Theotokos Greek Orthodox Cathedral.
WIN FREE AIRFARE TO GREECE FOR TWO!
Our raffle is one of the best! With raffle prizes for the entire family, it’s always fun to see what you can win!.
It wouldn’t be a Greek festival if at the end we didn’t have one lucky couple singing and dancing all the way to the airport with two free tickets to Greece.
LET ME HEAR YOU SAY “OPA”
The Denver Greek Festival offers live music and Greek dance entertainment. You will be able to watch our Greek dancers perform traditional dances while wearing authentic Greek costumes from various regions of Greece.
