The story

Ejekt Festival in Athens

Ejekt Festival launched in 2005 with a Chemical Brothers-headlined bill, filling a gap for a Greek festival built specifically around electronic music. Two decades on, it has broadened to a rock, indie and electronic mix, with past lineups including Muse, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Moby and Pixies, concentrated into one or two headline-focused nights each Athens summer.

Ejekt Festival opened in 2005 with a bill headlined by the Chemical Brothers, alongside Dave Clark and Bent, filling a gap Greek audiences had felt for years: a festival built specifically around electronic music rather than treating it as a side stage within a rock lineup.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Ejekt's origin as Greece's answer to a dedicated electronic-music festival, launched in 2005 with the Chemical Brothers as headliners, still shapes its identity even as the lineup has broadened toward rock and indie acts over two decades

02

The mystery stays covered

Rather than a sprawling multi-stage, multi-day programme, Ejekt concentrates each edition into one or two nights built around a small number of major headline sets, a format that has hosted Muse, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Moby and Pixies among many others, giving it a headliner-focused character distinct from Athens' larger, longer-running summer festivals
