With the active support and sponsorship of PPA SA, a series of three concerts has been organized, coproduction with GREEK FESTIVAL SA and the Municipal Theatre of Piraeus, under the heading “Tetras the Renowned of Piraeus”.
The performances, based on an idea and under the artistic direction of Lina Nikolakopoulou, will be hosted at the Stone Warehouse at Pier E2 of PPA, next to the Ministry of Shipping, shortly after the archaeological site of the Haetionian Gates.

Along with the provision of the Stone Warehouse and infrastructure support of the concert, the PPA Buses will be available at the Port to move the public from the space opposite the Station of Metro / Suburban Railway to the Stone Warehouse, both for the transition and for return of the visitors.
Note that the Stone Warehouse is part of the “Cultural Coast of Piraeus”, with the restoration work to be completed in the spring of 2015, so it will be fully available and usable by all the cultural institutions of Piraeus.
