This event is part of the hotel’s 50th anniversary celebrations and highlights Radisson Blu Park Hotel Athens’ ongoing commitment to promoting art and culture, while reinforcing its role as one of Athens’ most iconic hospitality venues. Radisson Blu Park Hotel Athens began its operation as an independent Luxury hotel, under the brand name “Park Hotel”, and in 2012 entered into a strategic Franchise partnership with the international Radisson Hotel Group.

With its stunning location opposite the largest park in Athens, Pedion Areos and a stone’s throw from the National Archaeological Museum, the historic Radisson Blu Park Hotel Athens – a reference point for the Greek public, has for years been the meeting point of Athenian artlovers. In recent years, within the framework of the “CONTEMPORARY GREEK ART” project, it has been in open dialogue with visual expression, connecting tourism with culture and showcasing works by important Greek artists through the periodic exhibitions it hosts.
