There are a couple of non-parish festival that I like to visit each
year:

-------------------------------------------------------
Columbus Jazz and Rib Festival
http://www.hotribscooljazz.org/
July 25-27, 2008
Admission: $0

The downtown riverfront will again play host to the Columbus Jazz and
Rib Festival, the largest and some say the best rib festival in the
world.

The festival runs along Civic Center Drive between Town St. and Main
St.; across the Town St. Bridge and on Washington St. between Broad
St. and Town St. Jazz acts will perform on two stages--the
Bicentennial Park Stage and the Genoa Park Stage.

Hours are Friday, July 25 and Saturday, July 26, 11:00 a.m. to 10:00
p.m., and Sunday, July 27, 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

German Village Oktoberfest
http://www.gvoktoberfest.com/
September 5-7, 2008
Admission: $8

The German Village Oktoberfest features over 60 bands on three states,
authentic German beer and food, shops, and more. Oktoberfest has been
described as "one of the top 100 events in North America."

Greek Festival
http://www.greekcathedral.com/
August 29th - September 1st, 2008
Admission: $5.00

Experience the culture and ancestry of Greece and our Orthodox
Christian faith as expressed through the many foods and activities
offered during our annual Greek Festival. In a world that is changing
almost every hour, it is refreshing and inspiring to touch base with
heritage and traditions centuries old, yet contemporary in their
focus.

Our Cathedral tours will inspire you, the Orthodox Christian Bookstore
will educate you, the food and drink will entice you and the
hospitality will overwhelm you. Stop by the shops, enjoy the music and
dancing, visit the exhibits and enjoy the wonderful Greek pastries.
