Greek Festival
Four days of street food, typical products, and Greek folklore in Piazza Castello
About Greek Festival
A piece of Greece in the province of Milan
When the Greek Festival arrives, Piazza Castello in Cologno Monzese changes its appearance and becomes a true Hellenic enclave for a few days. It's a festival that centers on Greek street food: food trucks churn out gyros pita, souvlaki, bifteki, and other traditional specialties, accompanied by the best Greek craft beers, for an authentic 'food and drink' experience.
Not just food: the market and folklore
Alongside the mobile kitchens, artisans and vendors set up themed stalls with shoes, clothing, and jewelry, while ample space is dedicated to typical food and wine products. Folk dances liven up the atmosphere, bringing the colors, sounds, and aromas of a market rich in Greek culture and history back to the square.
A free festival on the outskirts of Milan
The Greek Festival has free admission and takes place in Cologno Monzese, a municipality in the Milan hinterland easily accessible by metro. It's the ideal opportunity for a different dinner, with friends, without going too far from the city.
