South Australia is getting ready to celebrate all things Greek at the 41st Delphi Bank Semaphore Greek Festival

The Delphi Bank Semaphore Greek Festival is one of the premier Greek cultural festivals in Australia and one of the largest of its kind in Australia. A volunteer driven event, the Festival showcases and celebrates Greek culture and heritage within South Australia’s broader multicultural context.

Many generations of local volunteers dedicate endless hours to make the festival a success. It is this community and family spirit that underpins the success of The Delphi Bank Semaphore Greek Festival. Right now, Adelaide is setting a celebratory tone, as preparations have started for this year’s festival that will take place at the picturesque Semaphore Beach in SA, on the weekend of 18 and 19 January 2020.

Bring the kids, bring the pethera, bring the symbethera, bring the koumbara… this year bring the WHOLE family. Admission, as it has been for the last 41 years, is free.

Every year, the Festival is run with the help of its dedicated volunteers. With their contribution we are able to achieve a small wonder.

As we have designed a family centred event, we have made the necessary adjustments to accommodate our visitors. This year we have added more selling spots to make sure you spend less time waiting in line and have more time to enjoy our traditional Greek menu that includes lamb on the spit, yiros and charcoal cooked corn on the cob!

Again this year things will be happening onsite and online!

Our Media Hub, that debuted last year and attracted a lot of visitors, is returning of course. Last year more than 400,000 people visited the Festival’s social media pages. This year we have prepared more surprises for the online community.
