Athens Concert Hall (Megaron)

Athens Concert Hall (Megaron). Opened in 1991 and expanded in 2004, the Megaron is Greece's premier classical music venue with two main auditoriums — the Christos Lambrakis Hall and the Alexandra Trianti Hall — and a season programme of international orchestras, recitals, and Greek premieres. It is one of eight major cultural venues covered in the Teleporio Discover Athens guide to Athens cultural life.

Booking and Programme

Tickets are sold through venue or festival channels as specified for each performance. Availability and demand vary by event, date and seating section; check the current official listing and ticket inventory before making travel plans. If a particular performance is essential to your trip, consider booking once sales open and review the ticket terms.

Practical Notes

Evening performances in Athens begin no earlier than 21:00 — often later. Plan dinner before or after, not during. Most Athens cultural venues have no rigid dress code, but attending a performance in smart casual dress is the norm rather than the exception. The combination of a performance at a major Athens venue with the city's evening energy — dinner in Psyrri or Koukaki before or after — is one of the finest experiences the city offers.

Getting There

All major Athens venues are reachable by metro or a short taxi ride from the city centre. The Athens metro runs until midnight on weekdays and later on weekends — check the current timetable for late-night return options after performances. For venues outside the central zone, pre-booking a return taxi is advisable, particularly on busy summer weekends when demand is high after concerts end.
