Settle into Aigli Cinema, a historic garden cinema in central Athens where summer films play under the night sky. Grab a deckchair, order something from the cafe and watch a movie in a leafy open-air setting.
Full description
Aigli Cinema is a garden-set open-air cinema in the heart of Athens that runs its film programme through the warm months, with screenings starting after dark. Viewers watch from deckchairs in a leafy courtyard, and a full-service cafe serves pizza, drinks and snacks before and during the film.
The mood is relaxed and social rather than hushed, which suits couples and groups looking for a classic Athenian summer evening. Reviewers note that the garden can fill up quickly and that smoking is common in the open-air seating areas, so expect an informal atmosphere.

The deckchairs were looked comfortable than the normal ones. We had beer, wine popcorn etc. all pretty reasonable. The sound…
