Tropical Party Athens
2026-05-15 19:00 - 23:00 (Europe/Athens) | Ilisia Park, Dragoumi and Dimitressa, Athens, Athens, 115 28, Greece
It doesn’t take much to create an unforgettable night: just a love for music, a desire to dance, and a brave dose of extroversion. That’s the philosophy behind Tropical Party Athens, which returns for the This is Athens City Festival 2026 to remind us that, with the right rhythm, the city can feel like summer long before June arrives.

With a sense of total freedom and a personality that never takes itself too seriously, the Tropical crew promises another high-pulse night. The soundtrack spans the entire spectrum of the modern electronic dance scene, drawing in a loyal crowd of regulars and curious newcomers who usually end up staying until the very last beat.

The atmosphere is open, bright, and effortlessly joyful, a momentary escape where urban routine is swapped for pure carefreeness. It’s proof that Athens knows exactly how to celebrate with colour, rhythm, and an authentic, sun-drenched vibe.

Best 92.6 Radio Party

Escape the rush and head to Aegli Zappiou, the hidden-in-plain-sight garden that serves as the perfect backdrop for TiACF2026. One of Athens’ most influential radio stations, Best 92.6, is stepping out of the booth and onto the grass to host an alfresco party in this historic architectural gem.

The city’s favourite tastemakers will be spinning everything from fresh electronic cuts to floor-filling anthems. It’s an invitation to swap the pavement for the dancefloor and experience the true heartbeat of the city. No schedules, no stress, just dancing under the stars and soaking up the atmosphere of Athens at its absolute best.

Music 89.2
2026-05-15 19:00 - 23:00 | Klafthmonos Square, Klaftmonos Square, Athens, Athens, 105 61, Greece
Just before the official start of summer, Klafthmonos Square is gearing up to host one of the most vibrant and energetic open-air nights of this year’s This is Athens City Festival. Music 89.2 joins forces with the festival to transform the central square into a living, breathing meeting point packed with music, dance, and that unmistakable pre-summer anticipation.

It’s one of those nights where the city cranks up the volume and practically demands you come outside. The station’s heavy hitters, including Ta Kounavia, Maggie, Evangelia, and Chris IDH are stepping out from behind the mics and onto the decks. Go for a setlist of mainstream hits, live shows, and explosive dance performances.

For one night, Klafthmonos Square becomes a massive, open-air party in the heart of Athens like a collective “summer rehearsal” before the new season officially takes over.
