Greek Fest

Santa Anita Park has announced it will again host the annual Pasadena Greek Fest over a three-day period, Sept. 16, 17 & 18.  The popular event features all things Greek. From food, to live music and folk dancing, Greek Fest will also offer a children’s fun zone.   

 

“Bringing the Greek Fest back to Santa Anita last year was a tremendous success,” said Jim Christos, of the Greek Fest promotional committee.  “This year, we’re going to have an expanded kids’ fun zone along with authentic homemade Greek food and live music. We’re also very excited to bring a group of talented musicians from Greece andNew York City.  Additionally, we’re going to have a multiplex TV sports bar and cigar lounge, which should be a lot of fun.  All people have to do is bring their appetite and dancing shoes and we’ll all celebrate!”
