Since parking there is limited, there is additional parking next door at the Dania Beach Casino. Put on by the Dania Beach Community Redevelopment Agency the festival melds food, art, and entertainment. Entertainment included live musicians performing on the stage and sand sculpting. There were food tents and trucks set up selling all kinds of seafood but also fair food. The art side of the festival featured artists selling works in drawing, fiber, glass, jewelry, leather, acrylic, oil, watercolor, and photography. There were also arts and crafts, artisan food, and plant vendors. Local community groups and businesses also had booths passing out information, swag, and samples. I won a free hat from the casino! Many people brought chairs and set up for the day on the field or under the shade of the trees. On the last night of the festival there was a concert featuring a Queen cover band. Held over the entire weekend there was more than enough to keep you occupied for several hours. This is a great family and dog friendly event.

There were many local artisans selling jewelry, crafts, and artwork at reasonable prices. All of the tents provided some shade which was so necessary because it was extremely warm! There were plenty of incredible options for food as well. Of course, a great variety of seafood was available but there were also options for Greek food and other varieties. The music stage was so much bigger than I thought it was going to be and had incredible talent on it throughout the day. The Foreigner cover band was excellent! My favorite part of the event was the chef showcase! Local chefs from the area prepped a few dishes live for the audience. They shared their cooking techniques, tips, and tricks and once the dishes were done they shared tastes of each dish with the crowd. It was so entertaining and everything was delicious!

With a huge opportunity to bring culture to the South Florida community, it was largely missed. Checking in seemed disorganized but once in you walk through a tunnel of dolphins. Spitting you out to the craft section. Prices were as low as 2.00 all the way up to 500.00 with oriental rug stitching. The craft section also serves as the they're for the puppet show. This I thought was charming especially since the team of actors have been putting on shadow puppet shows for over 50 years. Than there's a small beer and wine stall along with an off brand food vendor ran by event staff and Chan's restaurant. All vendors were serving generic Chinese food. Which is a shame for such a rich culinary culture. The loop than puts you to small playgrounds and the King Fu theatre and over to a dinosaur ride section that has nothing to do with the Chinese Lantern Festival. Than it's to the light displays that wraps around the lake. All displays were cute but no where near the displays that could be accomplished. At 20.00 a person the Kung Fu show and Shadow Puppet Show ended up being the two small options worth any time or resources spent at this event.

    As festivals go, particularly at the price and especially for one being sponsor by, held and put on…read moreby and inside of a retail store, the IKEA Swedish Crayfish Party is a Five Stars Winner and one not to be missed. In the words of IKEA: "Imagine a mild late summer evening. Friends gathered around a table set outdoors with bright red crayfish, bread, cheese, shrimps and various pies. And as the sun sets slowly, candles are lit and paper lanterns glow in the increasing darkness. Everyone is wearing paper hats and bibs, singing merry songs to accompany the snaps." As it is actually held indoors within the second floor IKEA restaurant, you do have to imagine the table set outdoors, the candles and increasing darkness of a late Swedish summer night but other than that, it's all very real, very wonderful and oh so much fun. I would have missed it myself, but thanks to Yelper Mary Ann C. who set it up as an UYE I made it but not by much since it sold out so quickly. Originally set as a one night event with three seatings it so quickly sold out IKEA was "forced" to extend to two night with a total of six seatings. And when I say "forced" I do mean forced because when IKEA originally announced the tickets as having been "sold out," there was a near customer riot within the store. The regular price is $12.99, but with the free IKEA Family Tickets available at any IKEA kiosk, only $9.99, which for all the Swedish styled (read dilled) crayfish you can eat along with Swedish meatballs, Swedish gravy, Swedish lox, herring, cheeses, lingonberry soft drink and varying desserts, the dinner bargain of a lifetime. Being of Swedish heritage and having personally attending several late summer crayfish festivals in Sweden this was a real treat for me as IKEA managed to do it all so very, very well. Though I smugly thought the crayfish would have tasted different than those I've had in Sweden, they didn't. I couldn't tell the difference. They had that identical delicate dill taste, full flavor, texture and were all of large size. In fact, with the exception of the salmon which was smoked instead of a true "gravlax," all of the food was the same and very much served in the same manner. Just looking at that huge vat of tasty crayfish set my mouth watering with me eating more of them than I thought possible. The live Swedish music, the party napkins, bibs, and general festive décor of the place couldn't have been better, but what really astounded me was how many different languages and people of so many different heritages and backgrounds all showed up as fans of Swedish food and Swedish culture. In fact, other than me muttering a few Swedish words to my dinning partner, fellow Yelper Jim D., and listening to the singer singing in Swedish, I don't think I heard anyone speaking Swedish. So a big hooray for Sverige (That's how say Sweden in Swedish) and a big hooray for IKEA! It was a real classical Swedish late summer treat.

I did like the crayfish, I had a platter was full of them but it takes work to get to the rewards. The Swedish meatballes were my favorite and that is coming from an Italian who makes his own meatballs.The restaurant was very clean and the set up is very easy to get what you want fast and easy, no space goes to waste. Everything the sell in their supermarket was at the buffet. There were many families there and above all they had live music. It was a treat of treats to start anyones weekend.

I was actually vising a different…read morenearby cultural institution when I spotted the Fort Lauderdale Greek Festival presented by St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church. On a whim I decided to check it out and I am happy to report that i had a great time. It was right before the cold front was moving down from the north so it was a gray and drizzly day but the festivities helped to brighten it up. Parking was available for free in Holiday Park across the street. It was just a short walk over but there was even closer parking for $20 in the Art Serve parking lot. Admission at the gate was $5 cash or card. This year was the 46th year of this annual festival so they really know what they are doing. The church has secured a number of local partners to support them. The festival was created to share the traditions of Greece with the Ft. Lauderdale community. You could take a free tour of the church, listen to a lecture and authentic Greek music, take in a Greek cooking demonstration, shop the bazaar and Greek Grocery store, view a traditional folk dance, and possibly my favorite, indulge in the decadent food and drinks. The festival menu included spanakopita, tiropita, cheese saganaki, loukaniko, ribs on the grill, shish kabob, Greek fries, gyro sandwiches, souvlaki sandwiches, moussaka, pastitsio, roasted chicken, braised lamb shank, stuffed peppers, butter beans, Greek salad, rice, and lemon potatoes. Make sure to save room for dessert because the choices included kourambiedes, almond crescent cookies, diples, katafi, baklava, kok, ekmek katifi, pasta flora, rice pudding, galaltoboureko, koulourakia, tsoureki, ravani, karithopita, and melomakarona. As the weather turned colder throughout the day, the loukoumades, a fried Greek donut drenched in syrup and sprinkled with powdered sugar, cinnamon, and walnuts paired perfectly with a strong Greek coffee that warmed me up. Of course I had to leave with a few pastries to take home. I thought all of the food offerings were reasonably priced for festival food. I also appreciated that they don't require you to first purchase tickets which are turned in for food like a lot of other festivals. I was easily able to Apple Pay everything I wanted with no leftover or wasted tickets. After eating I enjoyed watching the children dance as people threw money up in the air around them to support their lessons and costumes. There were so many vendors to shop from selling Greek jewelry, accessories, beauty products, wine, and more. They also had carnival rides for the kids. I was really impressed with how large the festival was and how friendly and welcoming all of the volunteers were. The Ft. Lauderdale Greek Festival is a wonderful experience for all ages.

We loved watching the traditional dances and even learning a few steps ourselves--it really made you feel immersed in the culture. And the food... wow. Everything was incredible. From savory favorites like dolmades, saganaki, loukaniko, and lamb shank to the desserts (don't skip these!)--baklava, assorted Greek cookies, and authentic Greek coffee--it was all delicious and worth every bite. Beyond the food, there was so much to enjoy. Vendors, cooking classes, a carnival, and plenty to see and do for all ages made it a full-day experience. But the true standout for me was the church itself. It's absolutely stunning--each painting is beautiful and meaningful, and learning the stories behind them made the visit even more special. We loved every part of it and truly can't wait to go back next year. If you're on the fence, go--this festival is a must. An amazing time all around!
