A great Fresno Greek Fest
To our friends and neighbors around the Valley: Thank you for joining us for a particularly enjoyable 55th edition of Fresno Greek Fest. On behalf of the entire Greek community of Fresno, we wish to express our sincerest appreciation to all who participated, as an attendee or volunteer, in making every single hour of the three-day festivities every bit as opa as can be!
At a time in our civic history where we often talk about how much potential Fresno may have, it is gratifying, from our perspective, to see that potential realized in our festival. Representatives from other Greek festivals throughout California traveled to town to see what has made our event so spectacularly successful these last several years. Many came away with the same information – Fresno loves being Greek for a weekend.
We look forward to continuing to support our community and feeding the Valley for a weekend a year. Thank you for helping us continue to bring Hellenic hospitality to the Valley for these 55 years.
Peterangelo Vallis, Greek Festival chairman
