Such events are often fundraisers for Orthodox churches of the Greek Archdiocese.

  • Το ελληνικό φεστιβάλ είναι ετήσια γιορτή του ελληνικού πολιτισμού. Συνήθως τέτοιες γιορτές οργανώνονται από κοινότητες και οργανισμούς ελληνοαμερικανικών στις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες και τον Καναδά, όπως ελληνικές Ορθόδοξες εκκλησίες. Συνήθως, αυτά τα γεγονότα είναι που προορίζονται για το ευρύ κοινό. Οι συμμετέχοντες μπορούν να δοκιμάσουν ελληνικά φαγητά, να ακούσουν ελληνική μουσική και χορό, όπου οι χορευτές συνήθως είναι ντυμένοι με παραδοσιακές ενδυμασίες. Τα ελληνικά φεστιβάλ είναι συχνά έρανοι για τις Ορθόδοξες εκκλησίες της ελληνικής Αρχιεπισκοπής. (el)

Σε ένα σύγχρονο πλαίσιο, ο όρος "ελληνικό Φεστιβάλ" επίσης χρησιμοποιείται για να αναφερθεί σε γιορτές ή εκδηλώσεις που οργανώνονται και διεξάγονται από κολλεγιακές/πανεπιστημιακές αδελφότητες στη Βόρεια Αμερική.
