About Cine Dexameni

A much-loved summer cinema on a leafy square on the slopes of Lycabettus, reached up whitewashed steps from Kolonaki, with festival winners, European and French films and the occasional blockbuster. Closed for the winter; reopens in spring 2027. Kolonaki is Athens’s most elegant neighbourhood, on the slopes of Lycabettus Hill, with designer boutiques, galleries and smart cafés around Kolonaki Square, and the Benaki Museum and the Museum of Cycladic Art close by. Athens’s open-air cinemas are a summer institution: films are shown in the original language with Greek subtitles, and you can order a drink and snacks from the bar.

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Cine Dexameni before you go.
