Milwaukee Greek Fest Returns June 19-21

The 50th annual Greek Fest will take place Friday, June 19 through Sunday, June 21, at State Fair Park, opening at 11 a.m. each day. Hosted by the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church, the family friendly, free festival serves traditional mouth-watering Greek dishes including the highly sought after Greek chicken, saganaki (flaming cheese) and more. For dessert, the Yiayias (Greek for grandma) bake handmade treats.

The festivities will feature live Greek music on all three days as well as performances by Cherry Pie, Cold Sweat and the Brew City Horns. Unlimited carnival rides are available from noon to 5 p.m. with the purchase of a daily $20 wristband.
