note

This festival is considered by us as one of the best tips for this summer in case you are planning to visit Athens. In fact, the city is definitely one of Europe’s best if you like to attend open air events as well as partying until late with just a little cash. The weather facilitates the organization of events like this one, but unfortunately Athens is also not that safe city anymore. You should know that is dangerous to walk alone in some particular districts because Neonazis often looking for trouble and many people were stabbed with knifes etc. However Athens remains a good place to be in the beginning of summer.
