Opa! The 29th Annual Nashville Greek Festival Returns To Oak Hill

OAK HILL, TN — Get your Greek on this weekend at the Nashville Greek Festival on the grounds of the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church at 4905 Franklin Pike.

The festival, one of Nashville's most popular and now in its 29th year, offers a variety of Greek food — from gyros to stuffed grape leaves to full-on dinners of roast lamb and Greek-style chicken, plus all the delicious Greek baked goods and desserts imaginable, and even some that aren't, like a baklava sundae. Plus, of course, Greek beer and wine.

There are also a variety of vendors selling their wares in the agora, from Greek jewelry to olive-wood carvings made by the Christian community in Bethlehem. There's live music and Greek dancing and tours of Holy Trinity.

Admission is $3 with kids under 12 getting in for free and tickets are good for all three days. Parking is available on-site, but there is also shuttle service from First Presbyterian at 4815 Franklin Pike.

The festival runs until 9 p.m. Friday, from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. The shuttles from First Presbyterian begin at 4 p.m. Friday and noon Saturday and Sunday, running until the festival closes each day.

A full schedule of events is available at the festival website.
