Greek Fest Keeps the Spirit Alive
Greek Fest brought its usual mix of music, dancing and community pride to the city, and Sunday’s weather did little to slow things down. Attendees who showed up anyway were rewarded with the kind of warmth that has nothing to do with sunshine, proving once again why this festival remains a late-summer staple for Ottawa families and food lovers alike.
A Feast at the Indian Food Festival
Just across town, the Indian Food Festival kept its stalls open and its aromas drifting through the crowd, rain or no rain. It’s the kind of event where the food does most of the talking, and festivalgoers clearly weren’t willing to let a few clouds get between them and a good plate.
Jollof Fest Brings the Heat, Weather Aside
Jollof Fest also pushed forward on Sunday, continuing its celebration of West African culture, cuisine and community spirit. The festival has become known for turning up the energy no matter the forecast, and this year’s edition was no exception.
Ottawa’s Festival Season Is Just Getting Started to Wrap Up
With three festivals running strong through a rainy Sunday, it’s a good reminder that Ottawa’s late-summer events calendar has a way of powering through whatever the sky throws at it. If you missed this weekend’s lineup, there’s likely another celebration just around the corner, so keep an eye on the city’s festival scene before summer officially hands things off to fall.
