2021-08-20 19:44:59

Next Sunday, August 22, there will be a special full moon during which you will be able to visit selected museums and archaeological sites all over Greece. That night, 121 archaeological sites and museums will be accessible for free. Until August 25, 53 establishments of this type will additionally organize various events: concerts, performances, documentary screenings, exhibitions and guided tours.

Unfortunately, we have not found a list of these places that will be open that night anywhere. The organizer suggests that you find out locally in museums and excavations which of them will take part in these events. Participation has been confirmed by the Archaeological Museum of Rethymno, which will be available between 20.00 and 24.00

The concert organized at the Rokka archaeological site near Kissamos promises to be particularly atmospheric. The concert in the moonlight at the foot of the characteristic rock promises to be very romantic. Admission is free, but the number of places is limited. You can book a ticket at this link sunaulia-augoustiatikis-panselenou-giortes-rokkas-2021 Suggested time of arrival: 19.00. There is a special bus from Chania, which departs at 6:30 PM. The fare is € 5. Return after the end of the concert.

The August full moon is considered the brightest and largest of the year. Especially the full moon on the 22nd of the month since antiquity is associated with myths and beliefs. Every year, the Greek Ministry of Culture organizes visits to museums and moonlight excavations at this time. It is also a great opportunity to take extraordinary photos.

This year, all these events, due to Covid-19, will be conducted in accordance with current security protocols. Therefore, in confined spaces, you should expect to comply with the applicable limits of people and the use of masks.
