Welcome to Nea Filadelfeia — more than just a neighborhood, it’s the heartbeat of AEK Athens.

On this special day without a match, you’re invited to explore the roots, memories, and meaning behind one of Greece’s most beloved clubs. No crowd, no rush — just time to slow down, connect, and experience what AEK truly stands for.

We begin at Vizantini Gonia, a cozy cultural space that feels more like someone’s living room than a bar. Over a Greek coffee or a cold beer, your local host — a lifelong AEK supporter, will share the story of a club born from exile, built with hope, and carried forward by its people.

From there, we’ll explore the streets of Nea Filadelfeia, where football and everyday life are intertwined. Along the way, you’ll hear personal stories and reflections, not from a guidebook, but from someone who grew up here.

At the end of the walk, the road leads to Agia Sophia Stadium, a powerful symbol of return and renewal. You’ll explore the club’s official museum with special insights from the team behind it, before taking part in the stadium tour: locker rooms, press areas, pitchside views… but also the emotions and moments that live in these walls.

This isn’t just about football. It’s about belonging, history, and the spirit of a club that lives far beyond matchday.
