The largest cultural festival in Queensland, and the longest running Greek festival in the country, the Paniyiri Greek Festival returns to Musgrave Park in South Brisbane on Saturday May 17 and Sunday May 18, 2025 with tickets now on sale.
No other event gives Brisbane a jolt of pure joy than this festival of Greek fun that opens a window on one of the world’s most interesting and ancient cultures.
The Paniyiri Greek Festival is a two-day multi-sensory experience where people of all ages and abilities and background are encouraged to dance the Zorba, learn mediterranean cooking, taste Greek wines, cheer on the plate smashers, shop the market stalls, enjoy a non-stop lineup of entertainment while dining on the huge variety of authentic savoury or sweet dishes from multiple food stalls representing 11 different Greek regions.
The year’s festival will return with everyone’s favourites, along with some exciting new additions including the opportunity for first-day festival goers to pre-book a VIP Paniyiri Picnic!
Available to pre-booked online ticket purchases only, simply go to the add on list and choose the “Paniyiri Greek Mezze Box” which not only secures your access to the exclusive VIP picnic area, but includes a delicious grazing box filled with authentic home-made mezze including keftethes, spanakopita, taramasalata, tzatziki, kalamata olives with Yiayia’s secret marinate, locally produced feta and, of course, pita bread, that feeds up to four.
There is also the option of making this the ultimate laze and graze experience by adding a Greek themed Blue & White picnic blanket to your online booking to complete your Paniyiri picnic experience!
This strictly limited offer is available on the first day of the festival only – Saturday 17 May, between 12pm – 4pm, with picnic guests gaining access to the VIP area that is simply the best spot in the park to watch all the action unfold on the Main Stage.
This offer is strictly limited and must be booked online before 12 May – so get your crew organised and picnic like a VIP at Paniyiri in 2025!
