On Sunday, March 24, the Greek Orthodox Community of New South Wales (GOCNSW), in conjunction with the Parishes-Communities of NSW of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia, will hold a Greek Independence Day march to the Sydney Opera House.
This event is a crowd favorite in the Greek community of Sydney and is being held for the first time since 2020 when it was initially cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
An event will be held at the Sydney Opera House. The event on March 24 will begin with a memorial service and wreath-laying ceremony at 1 pm at the Martin Place Cenotaph in Sydney. The march to the Opera House will then follow at 2:30 pm, featuring formalities and entertainment.
In addition to the council celebrations in Burwood, Canterbury-Bankstown, and Marrickville, AHEPA NSW will also hold its annual Greek Independence Day event on Wednesday, March 27. The event will take place at AHEPA NSW Hall in Rockdale from 7 pm.
