This was our first year attending and won’t be our last. Luckily the weather was cloudy and cool. My biggest regret was not braving the line for the Loucoumathes. Next year, we are going right when it opens and starting with dessert.

Erinn,

Thanks for blogging about the Valley Greek Festival! I’ve been volunteering for more than 20 years, and the food is still the best.

Remember to check out the cooking demonstrations while you’re there.

The weather was great yesterday, and should be again today and tomorrow.

Stini Ya sas!

Yiasou Koritsi mou:

I love that you have a Greek yiayia. Nothing like them for good, home-cooked Greek food and rich stories about the old world.

And I love the St Nick’s festival. It’s easily one of the best in SoCal: great people, great food and wonderful music.

There’s another wonderful festival with plenty of good food and drink: the Ventura County Greek Festival at St Demetrios in Camarillo. They have a web site so be sure to check it out:

I’ll be at St Nick’s this weekend, with my teenage son who went to Sunday School there and danced with one the kids’ dance groups not that many years ago.

Greek festivals are a blast. The LA Greek Festival isn’t until Labor Day, so get your Greek on in the Valley until then.

Santa Barbara has ethnic festivals nearly every weekend in the Summer. Their Greek festival is the weekend of July 26th and is definitely worth a trip for food, drinks and dancing.
