OPA! The Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church of Baton Rouge wants you to join them in a celebration of Greek culture, entertainment and cuisine at the 2ND Annual Baton Rouge Greek Festival in Downtown Baton Rouge on Saturday, May 11, 2013, at the Town Square festival venue.

“This spectacular Greek Festival will be a wonderful family event produced by key members of the Greek Community and Greek Orthodox Church,” says Jimmy Burland, executive director of the festival.

Festival goers will dine on exceptional Greek food, cooked by hard-working members of the Church, using authentic Greek recipes.  A Greek band, “Alpha Omega Sound,” from Atlanta, GA will provide live entertainment and visitors will learn traditional Greek dances.  The Holy Trinity Greek Dancers from New Orleans will also perform throughout the day.

In addition to Holy Trinity, other beneficiaries of the proceeds from the Baton Rouge Greek Festival will include the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul of Baton Rouge, and other local charities.

An assortment of beverages, Greek pastries, Mediterranean arts and crafts, clothing, jewelry, religious icons, festival T-shirts and a festival poster will be available for purchase.
