Mikis Theodorakis 1925-2026: With the Distance of Time — Exhibition

Photographs and archive material tracing Mikis Theodorakis's life, free to visit at the Grand Arsenal through 15 September.

The Grand Arsenal is showing the photography and archive exhibition that anchors this year's Theodorakis festival, marking a hundred and one years since his birth. It is a quiet, unhurried way to spend half an hour in the old harbour, tracing the composer's life in images rather than concert crowds, and it runs well past the festival itself, open daily through 15 September. Free entry, no booking, and the harbourside setting makes it an easy add-on to an evening walk along the Venetian port.
