Live Band
To Kefi
We are excited to have To Kefi back to perform at the Tulsa Greek Festival!
Let them transport you to the tavernas of the Aegean islands with the sounds of the Bouzouki – a traditional Greek instrument similar to a mandolin or lute.
“TO KEFI was formed with one clear goal: to provide the best in Live Greek Music.”
Greek Folk Dancing
Our elementary school dancers, Ellinopoula & Asteria or “Little Greeks & Stars” graduate from Mikroulia to begin learning more challenging dances.
Our Young Olympians, middle & high school students, bring unmatched energy to the stage with their lively and athletic dances.
Paradosi – which means “Tradition” – is a group of young adults from college and beyond. They take on dances with more complicated steps and choreography.
Parea – which means “Group of Friends” – members of this dance troupe are visiting from the Denver community to perform their routines for the Tulsa audience.
Adult volunteers from around the festival take a break from their booths to throw on their costumes and perform as Alpha Omega!
Join us on stage while the band plays to learn some traditional Greek dances! OPA!!!
Lord of the Fries
This annual Greek fry eating contest is a big mess and a whole lot of fun!
Teams of 2, an “Eater” and a “Feeder,” work together to eat the most fries before time runs out! The winning team is crowned “The Lords (or Ladies) of the Fries.”
Takes place Saturday afternoon
Church Tours
Want to learn more about the Greek Orthodox faith? Take a tour of our church lead by Fr. George Gartelos. Father gives a brief history of the church, our services, iconography, and allows time for questions.
