One of the churches that has a prominent location in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah, is the Greek Orthodox Church. They celebrate and share their cultural heritage of Greece with the larger community by holding an annual Greek Festival.

The Greek Festival is one of the major events in downtown Salt Lake City each year. The Greek Orthodox Community held its 47th annual Salt Lake City Greek Festival on September 8, 9, and 10, 2023. It was a smashing success held at the location of the Holy Trinity Chapel of the Greek Orthodox Church of Great Salt Lake.

The Salt Lake City Greek Festival is the second-largest cultural festival in Utah and the largest Greek Festival West of the Mississippi.

The grounds of the Holy Trinity Chapel are transformed into a festival atmosphere where vibrant Greek culture may be embraced. There is delicious Greek food available as well as entertainment of dance and music.

There are all types of festivals going on in the United States and throughout the world, particularly during the Summer months. Many are ethnic-inspired events where people may learn and appreciate diversity as they experience the culture of different areas of the world.
