40 Watt Club

The 40 Watt Club is a music venue in Athens with a main concert space that holds several hundred guests, equipped with professional audio equipment and a dedicated performance stage. The room provides good views of the stage and works for both smaller and mid-sized to larger shows.

The club started in 1979 in a small loft space and relocated through several locations before settling at its current address in 1991. Over this period, it grew from a modest beginning into an established venue.

The venue serves as a gathering place where musicians and fans connect through live performances. Bands of all sizes use the stage to share their work with engaged audiences.

The venue is located downtown and opens most evenings for shows. Tickets can be purchased online in advance or at the door, which gives visitors flexibility when planning their visit.

The club has hosted artists across various music genres over the years and served as a testing ground for experimental and emerging acts. Its ability to present both established and unknown musicians makes it an important hub for local and regional music.
