East Cobb Events Update: Marietta Greek Festival cancelled

Marietta Greek Festival

The organizers of the Marietta Greek Festival announced Thursday that this year’s event, scheduled for May 15-17, has been cancelled and will not be made up. Here’s the message that’s being sent out:

“As the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve, our utmost concern is for the health and safety of our guests, neighbors, and church family. We look forward to seeing you again in May 2021 – as always, the weekend after Mother’s Day!”

That was the last of the major spring festivals and events in East Cobb to announce a cancellation or postponement.

The May 2 Taste of East Cobb was called off last month, as was the Cobb Master Gardeners plant sale and expo and spring garden tour.

Another event that had been scheduled for April 18 will be held in the summer.

That’s the sendoff for retiring Temple Kol Emeth Rabbi Steven Lebow, whose Opus celebration is now taking place on July 18.
