Shamone Club, located in the vibrant Gazi district of Athens, is a must-visit for anyone looking to dive into the city's LGBTQ+ nightlife scene. With its retro-inspired decor and a flair for the dramatic, this spot is perfect for those who love an energetic vibe. The club regularly hosts themed parties, wild drag shows, and live performances, making it a top destination for both locals and tourists seeking fun in a lively, inclusive atmosphere.
What really sets Shamone apart is its eclectic mix of music. You’ll groove to everything from retro hits to disco and mainstream pop, with a dash of Greek tunes thrown in for local flavor. Whether you're sipping on one of their inventive cocktails or dancing your heart out under the colorful lights, there’s never a dull moment here. Saturdays are particularly popular, drawing in a crowd ready to party until the early hours of the morning. For a break from the dance floor, their outdoor bar is a chilled hangout spot, perfect for Athens’ warm summer nights.
A Smokescreen of DisrespectI recently visited Shamone Club and left feeling utterly disappointed and disrespected. The club's blatant disregard for European smoking regulations and its patron's rude behavior created a truly unpleasant experience.Upon entering, I was assured that smoking was strictly prohibited indoors. However, this promise proved to be a false one. The club was filled with smoke, and numerous patrons were openly flouting the law. When I politely asked them to refrain from smoking indoors, I was met with hostility and arrogance. It was clear that these individuals felt entitled to behave as they pleased, regardless of the rules or the impact on others.When I brought this issue to the attention of the manager, he displayed a shocking lack of concern. Instead of taking action to enforce the smoking ban, he expressed fear of losing customers. This attitude is not only irresponsible but also illegal. It's clear that the club management prioritizes profits over the health and well-being of its patrons.The combination of a smoke-filled environment and a rude clientele created a toxic atmosphere that was simply unbearable. I urge potential visitors to avoid this establishment and choose a club that respects both the law and its customers.
Horrible night out here. Staff blatantly lied to us before going in that nobody was allowed to smoke indoors. After seeing 5+ people smoking inside, I raised my concerns with management and the answer was that they can’t kick people out. They would rather have me going home because I couldn’t stand the smoke inside. Clearly favouring the ones smoking. I wouldn’t waste my time if you want to have a smoke free night! Find somewhere else to go! Would have given 0 star if I could
The venue is actually nice and has potential but extremely overcrowded so you cannot even dance ( though surprisingly no one was dancing all night ) . At one point felt unsafe with the amount of people that were stacked as sardines in there . Music was at least bad ,skipping songs every 20 seconds ,pretty outdated and messy remixes . Drag show was disappointing with the queen literally ignoring half of the crowd and doing not much more than just waving her hands giving us nothing . Lazy .Shout out to the girl who was serving the drinks for being nice and professional in such an overwhelming environment!
Entrance is 10 euros (you get a drink) and drinks are 8 euros. I went on a solo trip and found it fun. The DJ started out playing American Club music then transitioned to more local music. One star off as it was very packed and couldn’t really dance at times. Overall had a good time and enjoyed the drag show
My husband and I went to Greece for a nice vacation. Googled this bar and saw it had amazing reviews and wanted to go check it out. The club filled up quickly and the drag show was great. Our great night turned into a NIGHTMARE when my husband went to grab us a second round of drinks. He came back with one empty glass, one full glass, and a bloody nose. He had been hit by a local HETEROSEXUAL male because he was too close at a bar where everyone was trying to get a drink. This escalated when we asked the doorman to kick the guy out and he saw him, said we overreacted (husband’s nose still bleeding) and pulled ALL of us to the back (INCLUDING THE MAN WHO ASSAULTED MY HUSBAND) onto the street where the man, who bloodied my husband’s nose was standing in front of us telling us how our faces would be in the ground and continued threats. AGAIN, THE STAFF DID NOTHING TO HELP US. After that expired, we tried leaving and were CHASED out by his friend. (Pictured running toward the cameras) Who also accosted us and tried to hit us. BEWARE OF THIS GAY BAR. There are a ton of local heterosexual men looking for women and are waiting to gay bash anyone they do not like and the staff WILL defend them and carry on with their night. If you don’t believe me, check out the pics. The one running towards us was the SECOND guy. The one HIDING from the camera is the one who ASSAULTED my husband. (They let him back into the club) So sad to post this….please beware these men.
Probably the best gay bar in Athens! Went there two days in a row during Athens pride and had a blast! Friendly staff, good shows, great music with a mixture of Greek and international pop. I’d definitely go again when I visit Athens again
Real fun gay club with the stage for drag shows in the middle of the room so everyone can see. There’s a chill outdoor bar and a small bar inside. Music was classic international pop and the crowd was very mixed. I had a good time and would go back again.
