Dear Friends,

Christ Is Risen!

Regrettably, the current COVID situation does not make it feasible to hold the Greek Festival, as originally scheduled, at this time. We are extremely hopeful that the effectiveness of the current mass vaccination efforts, coupled with the lifting of social distancing and gathering restrictions by the end of the Summer, will provide a safer and more enjoyable environment for this annual event.  

After careful deliberation, the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church of Buffalo is announcing that the 2021 Buffalo Greekfest has been postponed until later this year. Originally scheduled to be held June 4th – 6th, the church is seeking to hold the festival in early September 2021.

We look forward to opening our doors later this year to welcome the Buffalo community so they may enjoy our warm Greek hospitality as well as learn about our beautiful Orthodox Christian faith. All future announcements regarding the 2021 Greek Festival will be posted on the church’s webpage and Facebook page and the Buffalo Greekfest website (www.buffalogreekfest.org) as soon as they become available.
