Hi everyone. My wife is cure mad, we're looking at travelling over to Athens for ejekt from Australia. Just wondering if you would make the jump and book now (looking at vip in a hope we can see them actually playing lol) or would you hold off to see where else gets announced? Thoughts?

Hm, that really depends on various things: do you prefer Greece over any other European countries? Can you get cheap flights only now or later on as well?
If these two things are not the "problem" so much, I would suggest to wait, as Robert Smith announced via twitter:

From a logistic point view, considering you are coming all the way from Australia, I would wait to see what other shows will be announced before deciding something. I am pretty sure most, if  not all of them, will be announced this year.

Regarding this show in particular, there are many reasons to go: Greece is a Mediterranean country, so good food is guaranteed :) The ticket prices are reasonable (just 50 EUR compared to nearly 280 EUR for Glastonbury or other big festivals) and the band did not play there in 14 years...so maybe it will be more special. So this is a must-go show IMO and I already purchased my tickets :P

The concert venue is next to the sea, in one of the most beautiful suburbs of Athens (Faliro).



'Plateia Nerou", is "Water Plaza" on this map. It's a place that is structured with simplicity and order and also it's comfortable.

Here the Google Earth photo. It's where is the tag "Ejekt Festival", almost to the center of the photo. The entrance is SW, from the sea side. Stage is exactly against, to the other side.
(you can move the photo left-right, by the horizontal ruler to the end of this post)



For even more, watch this video. Shows exactly what you want to know, even is a video for 2015 Festival.


The night of July will be warm, bright and melodic.

Unfortunately, only two categories of tickets left. Arena 55€ and VIP 150€, after only one week.
