September is here in Athens, and the calendar is now being filled at the Theater of the Herodion or the Herodio Atticus Theater, also just know as the theater at the Acropolis. Whatever you call this amazing ancient theater, if you are in Athens on a night something is being performed, surf quickly to http://www.herodeion-events.gr/index_en.html to purchase your tickets online.
Some of the names appearing this fall in Athens at the Herod Atticus theater include George Dalaras, Ute Lemper, Mario Fragoulis with Lara Fabian, the Alvin Ailey Dance Ensemble, Ennio Morricone, Aliki Kagialoglou and tribute concerts to Maria Callas and Michalis Sougioul.

How does a little girl from Skokie, Illinois find herself in historical Athens, leading curious explorers through the winding streets of Plaka, down "pezodromos" to hidden ouzeries for tempting mezedhes and homemade barrel wine? The journey began more than twenty years ago, and regardless of whether the wanderlust comes from the spiritual and culture DNA flowing through my veins, or the alignment of the stars on that cold mid-December day this Sagitterian came into the world, I never seem to tire of exploring my adopted homeland of Greece. Here you'll join me as I explore Athens: be it the back streets of Psirri and Gazi, or through the National Gardens and Zappeio where a family of turtles makes their home, or down wide, treelined Imittou Street in Pagrati, which pulses with Athenian life 24 hours a day. And while Athens has stolen my heart, the rest of Greece vies for my curiousity and wanderlust. My two guys (that'd be the Greek God, Vasilis and our Greek dog, Scruffy) and I can often be found settling in for a long weekend in some charming mountain village, or a quaint fishing port on a nearby island, or learning how Greek vitners are producing wines that rival some of Napa Valley's finests productions, or celebrating a panayeri in Epirus or sharing in the festivities as a family of Cretan sheepherders come together to sheer their 1500 sheep in the spring ... And if you happen to find yourself heading to Athens, consider finding yourself a real home for your stay. Living amongst the locals, be it for 3 nights or 3 weeks, will offer you the chance to experience true Athens, beyond the Acropolis. Choose from one of our 5 beautiful penthouse and historical homes, and who knows, I may be leading you down that winding "pezodromo" to our favorite hidden ouzerie!

Hello –
There isn’t a schedule available yet for these dates, and historically they haven’t published the concerts for the summer until late spring. As soon as these are published I will be posting them here on our Events Calendar.
