Welcome to the Albanian Festival!!!
Mirёsevini ne Festivalin Shqiptar!!!
We are extremely excited to invite all of you to the Albanian Festival in Worcester to enjoy Albanian food, music, our community, and so much more at this superb cultural event. This year we are celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the Albanian Festival in Worcester. This is the oldest and largest Albanian Festival in America.
Our Church strives to make a positive impact in the community. Not only do we serve the religious needs of our community, but we extend our outreach through volunteerism and donations to various charities such as the Friendly House, Worcester Food bank, the Orthodox Food Center and Holy Trinity Nursing and Rehab Center, to name a few.
We hope to see as many of you as possible on June 2, 3 and 4, rain or shine, under our massive tent!
