Ever wonder what it was like to be Polish for the day? What about what it was like to indulge in truly authentic pierogis? Well, lucky for you this authentic festival combines both of those things in one sensational way. Running for over a decade, this Polish festival in Georgia has become a must-attend event for anyone looking for delicious food and an entirely new cultural experience.
Every year in Lawrenceville, Georgia, the Polish Pierogi Festival takes place and transforms the city into a little town in Poland.
This annual fundraising event is organized by volunteers from the Polish Roman Catholic Apostolate of Atlanta and usually takes place during the summer months.
Honoring Poland and pierogis for over 10 years, this cultural festival allows guests to admire and appreciate the 1,000-year-old heritage of Polish Catholics in Georgia.
But you don’t have to be religious to enjoy this festival, as it welcomes guests to participate in the traditions, beliefs, and culture that encompass the people of Poland.
The pierogi menu offers a unique combination of flavors from the potatoes and cheese to the mushroom and sauerkraut, plus grilled kielbasa and hunger’s stew known as bigos.
Keep an eye out for this year’s Polish Pierogi Festival and participate in an entirely different culture brimming with color, cuisine, and entertainment.
