The 29th Marietta Greek Festival continues through Sunday at Holy Transfiguration Greek Orthodox Church (3431 Trickum Road), and we got there not long after it opened on Friday to take in what’s become one of the most popular community festivals in East Cobb.
Grade-school children danced to folk tunes from the Greek islands and mainland, part of the featured entertainment that’s a custom at the festival.

Admission is $5, and free shuttle bus service is available at the Church of Latter-Day Saints (3340 Trickum Road, Saturday only), Simpson Middle School (3340 Trickum Road) and Mountain View Elementary School (3151 Sandy Plains Road).
The festival proceeds will benefit the Northwest Metro Atlanta Habitat for Humanity and Philoptochos (Friends of the Poor), a charity of the Greek Orthodox Ladies of the Atlanta Archdiocese.
