The Complex is situated at the south of Athens and comprises three Olympic Venues, the SportsPavilion, the Olympic Beach Volleyball Centre and the Peace and Friendship Stadium.
The Pavilion is a completely new venue built to host the taekwondo events and the preliminary handball rounds.
Part of the Faliro Coastal Zone Olympic Complex, the Volleyball Centre boasts a brand new 9,600-seater court which was bedded in during a test event last summer.
Kallithea houses two universities (Harokopion and Panteion), numerous cultural associations and several sport clubs, the most well known among which are Kallithea FC (soccer) and Esperos (basketball, volleyball, handball, tabletennis as well as soccer in the past).
The city is accessed from the east by Syngrou Avenue, from the south by Poseidonos Avenue, from the north and west by Kifissos Avenue/GR-1 and from the Athens centre by Thisseos Avenue (via Syntagma, Amalias, Syngrou).
