Athens By Night
Athens is an
entertaining city, some would say on a par with the great
entertainment centers of the world. On any summer night there
are out door concerts from your favorite rock stars to classical
music, ballet, and Byzantine music, and the
Dora Stratou Dancers. There are giant indoor-outdoor
discos and clubs where the most famous Greek singers perform
nightly to packed houses. In the winter Athens club scene comes
alive with shows ranging from blues-rock-jazz to traditional
Rembetika, laika and of course punk-rap and whatever
is happening in the west. The
Athenoroma magazine has a listing in Greek and
there is one in this guide as well but you may want to call and
make sure a club is open before you go since many of them are
seasonal. Also the
Athens news newspaper will list any interesting
concerts.

NIGHTLIFE & ENTERTAINMENT
 Athens is virtually a paradise for night owls. Whether
your start with dinner and then hit the clubs or begin with a couple of
drinks before making your way to one of the many live music
establishments, the city is sure to keep you entertained until the early
hours. The atmosphere in some of the bars and dance clubs has to be seen
to be believed, while a visit to a bouzouki club is an experience not
to be missed.
In
summer in particular, it appears that everyone is out of the town. The
seaside resorts of Glyfada, Vouliagmeni
and Varkiza
and the northern suburb of Kifissia are especially
popular and provide a cool respite form the city.
But
choice is not limited to bars and club. There are countless coffee shops
that stay open until late at night, taverns, restaurants, theatres and
cinemas (both indoor and outdoor).
