The story

World of Beer Festival Athens in Athens

Greece's largest beer festival, held each May at Technopolis in Gazi, gathering more than three hundred Greek and international beer brands alongside street food, live music, stand-up comedy and a dedicated game zone, organised under Athens's official city festival programme. The scale sets it apart from the city's smaller, craft-only beer festivals held at other times of year.

More than three hundred beer brands from Greece and abroad fill Technopolis every May, making World of Beer the largest beer festival in the country by sheer producer count and distinguishing it clearly from Athens's smaller, craft-only beer events.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

With more than three hundred participating beer brands from Greece and abroad, World of Beer operates at a scale well beyond Athens's smaller craft-focused beer events, giving it the broadest international range of any beer festival in the country

02

The mystery stays covered

Its backing from the Hellenic Association of Brewers and inclusion in Athens's official city festival calendar give it institutional standing distinct from independently run craft festivals, while inventive beer-based cocktails and a dedicated game zone push the format beyond a straightforward tasting event into a full multi-day entertainment festival at the industrial Technopolis venue
