Athens
Nightlife in Iera Odos
Iera Odos is Athens' best-known street for bouzoukia, with big live-music venues and clubs lined up next to Gazi.

At the start of Iera Odos, near Gazi and Kerameikos, sit some of the largest nightclubs in Athens. Every season many of the biggest names on the Greek live-music circuit perform here, and the same street also has clubs. It is the first choice for anyone after a "big" night of live Greek music at the bouzoukia.
The area is very close to the centre. Kerameikos metro station (line 3) is a few minutes' walk from the first venues, and taxis circulate constantly on weekend nights. On busy nights, a VIP transfer saves you hunting for a taxi on the way back.
