Tradition, food, and dancing is in our DNA! We live to create memorable experiences. As the longest running festival in Austin, we strive to bring uniqueness. What started 88 years ago as a bake sale on the sidewalk became today a hub for live music, dance performances, bazaar shopping, and the greatest Mediterranean food you can find in Austin. 88 years later, the tradition has moved down from a generation to a generation and the festival is as lively as ever. Many cultures, starting from Lebanese, Jordanian, Palestinian and Syrian and moving to Ukranian, Greek, Russian, Eritrian and many more come together to offer the best Mediterranean Festival for the year. Come and enjoy our communities cuisines, experience some of our traditions, and feel our great pride by attending the festival and sharing your time with us!
