🎉 Opa! Greek Fest New Orleans Is Calling—Here’s How to Do It Right (Hotel Included)

There’s only one place in New Orleans where feta flies, ouzo flows, and the sounds of bouzoukis bounce off the bayou: Greek Fest New Orleans, Memorial Day Weekend’s most underrated party. If you’re thinking it’s all moussaka and monastery tours, think again. This is a full-on cultural jam session where food, dancing, and tradition collide—NOLA-style.

And if you’re wondering where to stay? Louis Park Hotel is your backstage pass to the best of both worlds.

🏛️ The Festival: Where Ancient Culture Meets Bayou Cool

Set along the banks of Bayou St. John at the Holy Trinity Cathedral, Greek Fest is a three-day Mediterranean immersion—without the jet lag. Think:

• Spit-roasted lamb sandwiches you’ll dream about later.
• Loukoumades (Greek doughnuts) that should come with a warning label.
• Live music and traditional dancing that’ll have you yelling Opa! in under 5 minutes.
• A boutique Greek grocery pop-up with wines, cheeses, and spices.

And don’t sleep on the kids’ zone, the cathedral tours, or the sunset view from the bayou. It’s a family-friendly party with a side of philosophy and a whole lot of soul.
