We’re worshiping the season of the sun the only way we know how to: with music, art, wellness and pool parties all summer long at Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens. Introducing the Summer Series at Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens, a day-to-night lineup of music, art, wellness, and poolside parties that run from June through September — our invitation to lean into the warmest, wildest season on the Riviera. Whether you’re dancing at golden hour or catching tarot in the shade, it’s all here.

THE CURATORS
Anchoring the robust programming roster is Odyssey, a new music and arts celebration debuting at Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens on 18 June, and running monthly through September. Musical highlights include sets by Ross From Friends presents Bubble Love, Damian Lazarus, Horse Meat Disco and Midland. London-based She’s Lost Control curates Odyssey’s new age wellness experiences from Tree Carr, Jade Shaw and Valentina Olper, while art workshops round out the lineup. A day-long celebration of renegade creativity, Odyssey will be held on the third Wednesday of each month and is programmed in partnership with Plisskën, Athens’ premiere concert promoter. Access is free to hotel guests and available via ticket purchase to locals and visitors.
Plisskën will also relocate their Sunday afternoon rave EDEN to the hotel for the season. The series is a cultural force in the Greek clubbing landscape, fueling its committed dance floor with top-tier talent. EDEN will see acts including Hunee, Avalon Emerson and Lindstrom alight on Ace Athens on the last Sunday of each month throughout the summer.
In addition to Odyssey and EDEN, Ace Hotel & Swim Club Athens also announces FIXED on Friday July 18. The long-running New York City party brings JDH, beewack and special guests to the hotel’s decks for an evening party and night swim. Open to all, no ticket necessary.
Saturdays will be held down by residencies all season. Stegi.Radio
delivers their rolodex of DJs weekly to the Swim Club from 12:00–17:00, before
the party moves to the Lobby from 18:00–01:00. And curtain call is courtesy of
Sunday Service, perching DJs poolside Sundays from 12:00–17:00 to close out the
weekend.
