Tarpon Springs Epiphany Celebration

Ready to plunge into a century-old cultural spectacle? The Tarpon Springs Epiphany Celebration is the largest Greek Orthodox event of its kind outside of Greece, transforming the coastal town into a vibrant display of faith and festivity. Watch as a throng of young men dive into the chilly waters of Spring Bayou to retrieve a wooden cross cast by the Archbishop, furiously paddling for a year of divine blessings. The day is brimming with majestic processions, dove releases, and authentic cultural celebrations that bring the community together. Stick around for the Glendi festival afterward to feast on mouthwatering Greek cuisine and enjoy traditional music and dancing right in the heart of Florida!
