Bars in Residence

Five cities. Five bars. Five nights.
1-5 November 2026
There are plenty of ways to get to know a city. Sitting at its bars is a pretty good place to start.
Every city has its own customs: what it drinks, what it eats alongside it, what it listens to and how it gathers after dark.

This November, we’re bringing a little of that to Athens.

For five nights during Athens Bar Week, Okupa Kitchen & Listening Bar welcomes five independent bars from Paris, Liverpool, Ibiza, Edinburgh and Bucharest, each taking over the bar for one evening.

Each visiting team brings a little of its city with it. Expect cocktails made their way, music that offers another glimpse into where they’re coming from and some special off-menu items for your taste buds.

Fréquence and Bar Ton will each bring their own music and DJs to Okupa, while our resident selectors will take over the decks on the remaining nights, with sets inspired by each city’s music scene.
