The Effervescent Athens by Night
When the sun sets behind the beautiful scenery of Acropolis hill in Athens, night life awakens full of possibilities in a wide selection that can satisfy all different tastes. During summer months you can find many alternative outdoor concerts all around the city center and especially in Monastiraki and Gazi. You can choose from Latin to blues and rock’ n’ roll and spend your evening with a drink, dancing through the city pedestrian streets.
For those seeking local entertainment, there are cozy little bars or large crowded clubs all over town playing traditional rembetika, laika or pop, punk, rock and jazz. By the Athenian coast, all the famous clubs are waiting for you in the sounds of disco, pop and hip-hop with tables and chairs by the beach. So you can feel the warm sand on your feet while you dance the night away.
If you are visiting during winter or better yet in Christmas time, the center of Athens is just the place to be. Unique street performances, cozy clubs and small restaurants with live music will reward your unsettling spirit. The vibrant atmosphere will create the ideal conditions for great entertainment experiences.
In case you prefer a quiet and more peaceful night, perhaps you would be interested in one of the many outdoor cinemas of Athens. Some on rooftops, others in parks and beautiful gardens, like Thission cinema that offers you a unique cinema experience. Sit beside your friend or loved one with the temple of Parthenon on sight, grab a beer and enjoy your movie, most likely from the 50’s American cinema.
Wherever the night takes you, do not miss the chance to taste a ‘’dirty’’ sandwich from cantinas spread all around town, open 24 hours a day with Greek pork and homemade sauce. Take your morning lunch to a place with great view and say goodbye to the night!
