Sept. 10-22: Food, festivals, fun! (Repeat!)

IT MAY NOT feel like it yet, but it's September, which means it's time for festivals. Las Vegas offers plenty, from iHeartRadio to Life is Beautiful to San Gennaro to the Greek Food Festival. Whatever you're into, you're bound to find something you'll like.

Get ready to go Greek

September 27-29: It's almost time for the Las Vegas Greek Food Festival, an explosion of music, dance, art, carnival games and, of course, tons of authentic Greek foods from homemade baklava and dolmades to souvlaki, Greek fries, gyros and more. The best deal is to buy a coupon book in advance. For $25 you get $31 in value to be used toward any food or beverage. Coupon books can be purchased online or at the church office. Be sure to research parking and shuttle options in advance, because there's no parking near St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church.
