Estia Greek Festival

The Estia Greek Festival is a popular community event that brings people together to celebrate and share in our diverse culture, heritage and tradition.

Now in its 24th year, the street festival highlights the richness of Greek culture and Tasmania’s decades old love affair with Greek food, produce and hospitality.

Presented by Tasmania’s Greek community, the festival again features music, dance, arts and crafts, fine cuisine and beverages.

The Tasmanian Government has been a proud supporter of the Estia Greek Festival for many years and we are again delighted to support the 2017 celebrations.

The Festival typically attracts 10,000 people proving its ongoing popularity. Events like this are an important part of community life and allow us all to celebrate our shared stories and history.

My congratulations to the Estia Greek Festival organising committee, the Greek Community of Hobart and all the volunteers who help to make this such a vibrant street festival and a highlight on Hobart’s events calendar.
