The year 2020 will be remembered as the year that has altered everybody’s lifestyle.

Listen to the sound of our times and immerse yourself inside a unique outlook by tuning in to an international radio station that smashes through borders to bring you incredible names from the greek and international DJs, hip hop, electronic, and world music scenes 24/7.

MOVEMENT RADIO is a cultural platform that focuses on new music production, but also on its historic past, jointly sharing stories that have not yet been told, speaking through sounds and ideas, tracing current political and critical thought, and crossing an imaginary archipelago for the bolstering of dialog that goes beyond borders and dates. It is a culturally bonding substance set between peoples, communities, and artistic creation. This new radio station will act as a transmitter, set to record, broadcast and unite past, present and future from its base in Athens!.

The huge success of the kids’ contest continues and takes a new form!

Through our new digital platform, we discover ways to create, find information and gain knowledge that introduces us to the universe of History and Art.

On the occasion of the exhibition “Antiquarianism and Philhellenism. The Thanassis and Marina Martinos Collection” at the Museum of Cycladic Art, we invite children, ages 4 to 15, to bring their own “Everyday Heroes” to life!

Through paintings, sculptures and other artworks, we search for information and learn about the Heroes of that period, and connect them to their contemporary counterparts.

Who are your own Everyday Heroes, and what makes them stand out? We see them all around us, we imagine and draw them, making them even more unique!

Just like every May, this year's top cultural event, the Athens Street Food Festival is returning to Athens!

For nine days (May 10-11-12, May 17-18-19 and May 24-25-26) the Old Depot of OSY in Gazi will become the meeting point for foodies, families, friends, tourists, and all those who wish to taste new street flavors from every corner of the world.

Athens Street Food Festival started back in 2016 with the aim of making the Athenian public aware of street food culture. The public's reaction was so overwhelming that the concept of "street food" rapidly spread to become the ultimate gastronomic trend in the country!

With more than 250,000 visitors in total, Athens Street Food Festival is the largest food festival in Greece, a real institution for the gastronomy of the country. 

In this year's fourth edition, the "recipe" remains the same with love for food, careful selection of participants from all over Greece, new ideas and a wide variety of flavors.

On January 7, the curtain is drawn on this year’s SNFCC Christmas World with a vibrant event marking a hopeful attitude for the new year ahead. At the heart of the SNFCC, the Agora, the King of Rock & Roll comes to life for one night only, and everyone is invited to join in this open party. 

No other pop culture persona has been as timelessly fascinating and as captivatingly charming as Elvis Presley — case in point: there are currently approximately 100,000 official impersonators of him in the US alone.

During his lifetime, Elvis stirred up teenage consciences, overturned social norms and shot down musical conventions. At the same time, he turned himself into a unique embodiment of the American Dream: he was innovative and, at the same time, inordinate in absolutely everything he did. And this is the reason why one generation of music lovers after another keeps on discovering his musical legacy with the same warmth and longing.

SNFCC’s tribute to Elvis Presley brings together musicians from the three most “thoroughbred” Athenian rock & roll bands, D.K. & The Band, Jitterbugs and HiRollers, in a delightful evening covering Elvis’s entire discography, from “That’s All Right” and “Mystery Train” to “Heartbreak Hotel” and “Blue Suede Shoes,” and from “Hound Dog” and “Jailhouse Rock” to “It’s Now Οr Never,” “A Little Less Conversation” and “Suspicious Minds.” 

Every Friday, the Restaurant on the second floor is open until 12 midnight offering special gourmet choices and beautiful night views of the Acropolis. The Restaurant renews its menu with seasonal dishes, using the finest products from every region of Greece, prepared in traditional methods.

Other than the special dishes based on traditional recipes, every Friday night the Acropolis Museum restaurant presents famous jazz music ensembles (musicians include Spyros Rontogiannis, George Tsiropoulos, George Mikros, Arionas Gyftakis and Christos Koromilas). Like every Friday, the restaurant is open until 12 midnight, offering a dinner menu from 8 p.m. onwards. 

For reservations, please contact the restaurant during Museum opening hours on +30 210 9000915. Visitors not wishing to dine at the restaurant are welcomed for a cold dish or dessert in a special restaurant area without reservation.
