CORPUS CHRISTI -- Opa!

Folks showed up for the popular Greek Festival in Corpus Christi!

Kids and adults got a chance to dance to Greek music there was also plenty of Greek food.

The pastries were so popular they sold out of those Saturday already!

The 49th Annual Greek Festival was held at St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church on Chaparral Street this weekend.

The festival was free!

And folks out there told us, it gets more and more popular every year as it's a great way to teach people about the Greek heritage and traditions.

Harry Plomarity, "it started out as a small pastry sale and evolved into a full time festival."
