A Legacy of Faith, Philanthropy, and Community

For generations, the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Cathedral and the Norfolk Greek Festival have been pillars of faith, culture, and service in the Hampton Roads community. More than a celebration of Hellenic heritage, our festival embodies the Orthodox Christian values of philanthropy, hospitality, and love for our neighbor.

At the heart of this tradition is the Cathedral’s unwavering mission to serve not only our parishioners but the entire Norfolk community. Through the Norfolk Greek Festival, we extend this calling, using the blessings of our culture—delicious food, joyful fellowship, and cherished traditions—as a means to give back.

Each year, a significant portion of festival proceeds is dedicated to charitable organizations that uplift those in need, reflecting Christ’s commandment to “love one another.” Whether supporting food banks, shelters, medical initiatives, or educational programs, our contributions aim to bring hope and relief to the most vulnerable in our community.

By attending the Norfolk Greek Festival, you are not only immersing yourself in the richness of Greek culture—you are participating in a mission of faith and service, ensuring that the Annunciation Cathedral continues to be a beacon of light and compassion in Norfolk.

Join us in celebrating our faith, our heritage, and our shared responsibility to care for those in need. Every meal enjoyed, every dance shared, and every moment of fellowship brings us closer to building a stronger, more compassionate community.
