Hello everyone, although no fault of the Greek Festival organizers, the opening hours listed here are wrong! The Festival for today Friday Aug 16, 2019 is at 4:30 PM and not 4:30;AM as listed here!
Mind you I should have been paying more attention but my Wife and I took her mother to taste the wonderful food but at noon everything was shut tight! What a dissapointement it was for her. Further there are no signs listing the hours of operation NOR indicating where parking is available!?!!
Very frustrating.
Please ensure that the opening hours are displayed and some signs indicating where to find parking.
I may attempt to attend later on next week.. what a bummer…..
I was very disappointed with the festavale this year. Their was little live entertainment. It was more a FOOD fest. More people came to get the lam
I sat most of the time bored. Will I try again next year Only id Program changes back to old format More live music and dance.
