INTERNATIONAL FOOD, SHOPPING AND ENTERTAINMENT AT CHURCH FESTIVAL
St. Anthony’s Orthodox Church in Bergenfield welcomes foodies and shoppers to its International Festival on Friday, November 13 and Saturday, November 14, from 11am-10pm. The annual International Festival offers mouthwatering food, unique shopping and live entertainment.
St. Anthony is located at 385 Ivy Lane in Bergenfield, NJ. Its fabulous food has been drawing crowds to the festival for over 40 years.
Enjoy delicious Greek, Middle Eastern, Slavic and Eastern European entrees, from shish kabob and spanakopita to kielbasa and more. The Bakery has an amazing variety of cookies, pastries – including the ever-popular baklava, honey-drenched cookies and light and airy tea cookies.
This year's festival will feature a Marketplace of new and "like new" items, all at bargain prices. Merchandise will include fall, Thanksgiving, and Christmas decorations, home décor and linens. It also offers a large selection of jewelry, scarves, handbags and women's accessories. Much of this merchandise is new and will make great gifts at a fraction of the original retail price! Our religious booth will offer jewelry, icons, books and beautiful gift items, and our vendor area will feature unique items, like olive wood carvings and hand-knit sweaters.
In addition to delicious food and great shopping, enjoy the Big Band sound on Friday night from 5-7pm; live jazz entertainment on Saturday night, take a tour of our beautiful church, or listen to the moving music of St. Vladimir’s Seminary Choir on Saturday afternoon. There is even a Kid’s Zone on Saturday afternoon with face painting and games just for kids. There is something for everyone!
And if you love chances, we have a giant raffle! Just 200 tickets are being sold. Each ticket is $100 (but can be divided into $20 increments) so the pot gets big, and we have multiple winners.
Come for lunch, dinner or takeout and enjoy all the festival has to offer!
