About this event
On Ochi Day the National Archaeological Museum opens its doors to everyone at no charge — the Mycenaean gold, the Antikythera Mechanism, the Artemision Bronze and the whole sculpture sequence, on one of the few dates in the year when the ticket desk is switched off for all visitors regardless of nationality or age.
Why we picked it
The single best free museum day in Athens in this window, on a public holiday when the city is out walking anyway.
Free entry
Free entry for all visitors — the museum's own visit page lists 28 October among the dates when 'Η είσοδος είναι ελεύθερη για όλους τους επισκέπτες'. This is a dated free day, not the museum's standing pricing.
