Starting today, it’s the 83^rd annual St. Elias Mediterranean Festival. One of the tastiest cultural festivals to grace our city. To set the mood, there will be Greek and Arabic dancers tapping a toe or two to live music. As you’ll inevitably be dancing with such great live authentic tunes filling 11^th Street, you can shimmy your way through the marketplace and shop. There will even be an Orthodox Bazaar.

But, the best part of this festival is definitely the food. Treat yourselves to the amazing delicacies of Lebanon, Palestine, Greece, Eritrea and Romania. This festival is great for all ages! Bring your family and friends and get ready to immerse yourself in some wonderful Mediterranean cultures.

Time: 6 pm- 11 pm October 16^th and Noon- 11 pm October 17^th
