The Mytilenian Brotherhood of Sydney has announced the return of its annual ‘Sardella Day’ event on Sunday, September 22, at the Mytilenian House in Canterbury from 12.30pm.
A beloved tradition on the Greek island of Lesvos, Sardella Day honours the island’s famous sardines, fished from the gulfs of Gera and Kalloni.
This Sydney event will bring the flavours and traditions of Lesvos to the local community, offering a menu of BBQ Sardella, fried Sardella, oven-baked Sardella, and a variety of traditional mezethakia.
The day will also feature live music from Ioannis Keligiannis, Thanasis Pylarinos, and Nikos Filippatos, ensuring an authentic Greek atmosphere. A vibrant dance performance by the Sydney Greek Dancing School group will add to the lively celebration.
President of the Mytilenian Brotherhood Peter Psomas encouraged everyone to attend the event.
“We always look forward to Sardella Day and keeping the tradition going from one of the biggest festivals that takes place on our lovely island of Lesvos,” Mr Psomas told The Greek Herald.
‘Sardella Day’ begins at 12:30pm at the Mytilenian House, located at 225 Canterbury Road, Canterbury. For bookings call: 0402 207 546 / 0435 604 433 / or 0401 268 888. Don’t miss out on this wonderful cultural experience!
