Hobart’s favourite cultural event
Estia 2026 announced shortly
The word Estia (Ἑστία) means "home" in Greek.
Estia was founded in 1994 with the main objectives to present the Greek-Australian culture, heritage and tradition to the broader Australian community. The first Estia was themed "two-cultures" which celebrated and demonstrated the integration of Greek and Australian cultures generally and within the Tasmanian context.
Since inception, Estia has become a vibrant showcase of our rich culture and heritage. The Executive Board are pleased to bring you the 2025 festival program.
The journey to Estia 2026 begins
We’re already busy cooking up something special for Estia 2026!
While we’re busy booking every spit roaster in Tasmania, enjoy highlights from 2025 — a celebration of food, family and the Greek spirit that brings us together.
