Dexameni in Athens, Kolonaki

Location: Kolonaki

Located in the heart of the prestigious Kolonaki area, at the feet of Mount Lycabettus, Cine Dexameni is admittedly one of the most wonderful and nostalgic open-air cinemas of the city. With a magical view to the downtown Athens and the hill of Acropolis, on the overgrown square of Dexameni, this is an experience for those who want to get a taste of the old-school Athenian nights.

The operation of Cine Dexameni originally begun in 1905, while after years of being out of use it was renovated and reopened in 1991. Since then, it has created a loyal fanbase over the years that has linked the hot summer nights with its updated filmography, friendly atmosphere and cooling shade. To this day, cinephiles await for those early May days to check out the upcoming programme and screenings and set a date outside its doors. Let the summer breeze soothe you while you laugh -or maybe cry a little- under the magnificent sky of Attica.
