planning a group night
Hen parties, anniversaries and group tables
Tables are built for two, but the wedding itself is made for a crowd — how groups, couples and solo travellers each fit into the night.

Tables built for two
The venue's own tables are designed for couples rather than larger parties, so a solo traveller is asked to reach out directly by WhatsApp or email ahead of booking rather than just turning up.
The Golden ticket for a celebration
For a hen night, an anniversary or a milestone birthday, the Golden ticket's rooftop pre-party — described as time with the groom's friends and family before the show — plus front-row seating gives a group its own lead-in to the evening.
Bigger private groups
For a party too large for standard tables, the venue runs fully customisable private events for birthdays, anniversaries, bachelorette and bachelor parties, and corporate groups — arranged directly with the theatre rather than through a standard ticket.
Cruise-ship schedules
Guests working around a cruise-ship stop have separate options built for shorter windows, including a hands-on Greek cooking class served with wine, and an island tour that ends with the same plate-breaking tradition.
Booking as a group of friends
Even without a private event, a group can simply book multiple standard tables for the same seating — since it's one show a night, everyone in the party ends up in the same courtyard regardless of which ticket type each table books.
What to book ahead
With one seating a night and an intimate room of around 80 guests, the venue is explicit that tickets sell out — for a group night especially, booking ahead of the trip rather than on arrival in Santorini is worth doing.
