Olympia Theatre, Opera house on Akadimias Street, Athens, Greece
The Olympia Municipal Music Theatre includes modern technical facilities and accommodates numerous attendees for various performances throughout the year in central Athens.
The theatre served as the home of the Greek National Opera for over 50 years until 2017, when the opera company relocated to Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre.
The venue honors Maria Callas through its official name and exhibits personal objects belonging to the Greek opera singer within its premises.
Located near Panepistimio metro station at 59 Akadimias Street, the theatre offers convenient access to public transportation and surrounding dining establishments.
After the Greek National Opera's departure, the City of Athens completed a renovation of the theatre, transforming it into a municipal opera initiative center.
