Spend an evening at Thision Open Air Cinema, one of Athens' classic summer film spots. Pick a seat with a drink in hand and watch a movie with the illuminated Acropolis glowing behind the screen.

📖

Full description

Thision Open Air Cinema has screened films since 1935 and runs a spring-to-summer season in the central Athens neighbourhood of Thiseio. Its main draw is the setting: viewers watch with the Acropolis rising behind the screen.

A bar sells wine, beer, cold drinks and snacks, and the red-themed seating is described as reasonably comfortable. Sound quality gets mixed comments, so later showings help, since darkness arrives properly then.

Films run on an evening schedule into the night, and a screening takes roughly two hours. It suits couples and anyone wanting a distinctly Greek night out.

Really cool place, where your can also buy wine, beer, cold drinks and snacks. The top score might be due to the fact that we saw The Odyssey - with the Acropolis as a backdrop 🤩 Talk about setting for this kind of movie!
