Ciao!
I will be 3 days in Athen next month.
I will surely visit OAKA, Karaiskaki and Panathenaiko.
What other stadiums you suggest?
I will be in Moscato area, can anyone suggest me a perfect trip for to visit the 3 stadiums (or also 4) in lower time possible?
And also, do you think that I can enter in OAKA and Karaiskaki? Are there museum or shop corners?
Also , did you know if in Athen there is a Football Shop with material about Greek teams?
Thanks!

ps: about Sport Palace?

Probably you will have problem visiting OAKA. The entrance in the olympic complex is limited. Furthermore, even if you manage to enter in the OAKA complex, there is a "wall" around the main famous stadium. If you enter in the complex at least you can take some pictures.

If you wish to visit Karaiskaki, just remember that the restaurant and the bar-cafe are located at the building of the stadium. This is a good place to have an entrance to the stadium. Wink

You will have no problem visiting Panathenaiko. It is one of the most popular tourist sites in Grecia.

Regarding your transportation, check the pdf map
http://www.ametro.gr/page/default.asp?la=2&id=48#

The hotspots are

Faliro(Green line) for Karaiskaki
Syntayma(Where the red crosses with the blue) for Panathinaiko(You need to get a bus or walk for 15 minutes)
Irini(Green line) for OAKA

Your place(Moschato) is near the Green Line.

Arrivederci

Olympiakos boutique is located at the Karaiskaki stadium.

Unfortunately i don't know anything about the other info that you require. Sad

I hope that someone else will help you ...

I have to tell you again, that generally the OAKA complex is not opened for the public. You can enter there only if some athletic event is performed at a specific day-hour. At any other time, access to the complex is allowed only to athletes and to the public that participates in a membership program.

"membership programs" are explained in the website of OAKA if you press the "Visits of the Public" link on the left of this page:

Regarding official club stores:

As Losada7 wrote, the central Olympiacos shop is located at Karaiskaki Stadium.

The central Panatinaikos shop is located at their historic home, Apostolos Nikolaidis (Leoforos) Stadium in Athens, below gates 9-11.

As for AEK, the main shop is next to their old, now demolished, stadium at Nea Filadelfia. However, it is a bit far from Athens city centre. There is also a smaller AEK shop in central Athens, at 7 Aeolou Street, near Monastiraki metro station.
