For those who love live music, Achaea and Patras are the ideal destination.

Today due to the famous International Festival of Patras (www.festivalpatras.gr ) that is held every summer, many concerts and musical performances for all tastes are organized in Patras, exciting even the most discerning spectator. Acclaimed artists from Greece and abroad choose Patras as one of the points where they unfold their musical talent. Unique concerts are held at the Roman Odeon, the Patras Castle and the Castle of Rio, where the exceptional sound of music and the breathtaking scenery create a wonderful atmosphere not to be missed.
Greece, and especially Patras, is famous worldwide for its Greek music and the musical instrument bouzouki.

In Patras, as elsewhere in Achaea, there are many places where you can live a different musical experience and have fun the traditional Greek way. If you are not the bouzoukia-type, no matter what kind of music you are into, you will definitely find somewhere in Patras a live stage or bar dedicated to your favorite genre.
