Description: The Festival will take place under the "Big Tents", rain or shine.

More than 25,000 people visit the Cranston Greek Festival over the course of this fabulous three day event of Food, Fun, Greek Dancing and Culture.

Greek Food: Guests enjoy a wide variety of Greek food including roast lamb, Greek style chicken, souvlaki, pastitsio, spanakopita ("spinach pie") tiropita ("cheese pie") and Rhode Island's best GYROS.
