The Saint Maron Maronite Catholic Church Annual Festival provides an opportunity for families to come together and celebrate the beautiful aspects of Lebanese, Syrian and American culture together in one place. The Festival is held on our beautiful 26 acre location in Independence, Ohio.
This much loved event draws people from miles around to enjoy the best of our music, cuisine, and culture. Traditional Lebanese music, popular American music, along with performances by our teen folk dance groups provide for a unique event that showcases a wide range of talents and entertainment styles. Traditional Lebanese and Syrian family recipes are prepared by our own parishioners and served with the hospitality that is a trademark of our community.
Throughout the festival, children’s activities make our event one the whole family can enjoy.
Please join us for a day your whole family will enjoy!
