Greek National Day

Commemorate ‘OXI’ Day - the day of No! With us.

‘OXI’- the one word which, on 28th October 1940, voiced by the Greeks, changed the course of World War II. The day when Greece courageously said ‘OXI’, No, to Italian Fascist leader, Benito Mussolini when he demanded the Italian army be allowed free passage to enter and occupy strategic sites in Greece, unopposed.

Greek Food - souvlaki, loukoumades, baklava and freshly brewed Greek coffee, with taverna-style culture with music and dancing.
