Over four decades, Paniyiri has grown to become Queensland’s signature celebration of all things Greek and the state’s largest cultural festival, as well as the country’s longest running Greek festival.
Held from Saturday 20 May to Sunday 21 May at Musgrave Park, this year’s celebration is expected to see more than 60,000 people pass through its gates.
This year’s event highlights include the introduction of The Plateia (authentic Greek Village), the Hellenic Dancers Showcase Program, the acclaimed Cooking Program starring the flavours and faces of Greece and a line-up of authors, chefs, speakers and home cooks; as well as the dancers, singers, stars and the array of celebrities that will make the third weekend in May taste, sound and feel extraordinary.
There will be more than 20 hours of entertainment over the weekend, including the return of Greek Dancing with the Stars featuring special celebrity guests and judges, the famous ZORBA-Til-You-Drop, Grape Stomping, Olive and Honey Puff Eating Competitions, Spaghetti eating, Plate Smashing, and the return of the great Greek characters, Herc & Xena. Plus, heaps more!
Around 300,000 Honey Puffs, 100,000 Souvlakia, almost 12,000 Dolmades and 1,600kgs of halloumi will be consumed over the weekend.
