Experience Greek folk tradition at the Dora Stratou Theatre, an open-air stage on Philopappou Hill. Watch dancers in regional costume perform to live musicians as evening falls over the hill.

📖

Full description

The Dora Stratou Theatre is an open-air venue on the slopes of Philopappou Hill where the Dora Stratou dance company performs traditional Greek dances and music in regional costume. Reviewers highlight the skill of both the dancers and the musicians and the atmospheric setting, though they also mention that the facilities would benefit from some maintenance.

Performances are held in the evening and tickets should be booked ahead. The back entrance, reachable on foot from the Acropolis area, is not always open, so confirm access details before you set out.
