The Roman theatre on the south slope of the Acropolis, and the most atmospheric place in Greece to hear anything. Part of the Athens and Epidaurus Festival. A restoration programme affects the schedule, so check what is actually on.
Stavros tou Notou
A live music institution in Neos Kosmos, running since 1995. Greek acts, laiko and rock, across several rooms. Where you go to hear Greek music played to a Greek crowd.
Ejekt Festival
Athens' long running international festival. Tickets go through more.com and the Public store network, with handling fees on top depending on the retailer.
Where to buy tickets
more.com is the main Greek ticketing platform, covering concerts, theatre, festivals and most large venues. Buy direct where you can, because resale markups on Greek events are common and venues do not honour them.
