In the shadow of the Parthenon takes place the first stop of our modern Odyssey. Hosted at the Acropolis Museum, the First Timers and Opening Reception draws inspiration from Odysseus’ spirit of exploration and discovery. Greenery, glass, light, and clean architectural lines. More than a home to priceless artefacts, the Museum itself is a landmark of modern Athens: a building designed to converse with nature and history combined. Here, familiar faces will reunite, new members will join the circle, and conversations will begin to flow against panoramic views of the Parthenon. An evening of reconnection and shared excitement as our modern Odyssey officially begins.

As the modern Odyssey continues, the journey moves away from marble and monuments and falls deep into the living pulse of Athens. Following the strolling through the streets of Athens and after experiencing the heart of the city like a local, the informal evening at Cinapos echoes the spirit of Odysseus’ encounters along his journey: moments of rest, music, food and shared memories. Set in a beautifully restored neoclassical building dating back to 1845 in Thissio, Cinapos carries a rich story through time, having served as a prison, a school, and a beloved local restaurant. With stone walls, wooden beams, and an olive tree at its heart, in Cinapos, Greek flavours take centre stage with a family-style menu made for sharing. In this traditional setting guests are invited to gather, exchange stories from the day, and enjoy an evening shaped by socialization, rhythm, and the timeless art of coming together.

At BLE Pavillon, on the edge of the Athenian Riviera, the gentle rhythm of the waves feels like a quiet echo of Odysseus’ long journey—a reminder that every great voyage deserves a joyful and luminous closure. With its open design and panoramic views over the Saronic Gulf, BLE Pavillon is a sophisticated, timeless venue, setting the stage for an evening elevated by a touch of glamour. At the Gala Evening, we will celebrate shared knowledge, meaningful connections, and the adventures experienced together. In an atmosphere infused with music, movement, and a hint of disco-inspired glow, guests will gather to enjoy the evening’s live band, a thoughtfully curated mix of standing and seated dining, and a full open bar. Against the shimmering backdrop of the Athenian coastline, we will raise a toast to journeys completed and horizons yet to explore.
