Georgios Kretsos, festival director, said that at the heart of the event, it’s more than just food.
“This festival is about more than great food. It’s about community, culture, and celebrating the vibrant spirit of Durban. We want people to come hungry, leave happy, and take-home unforgettable memories,” said Kretsos.
