Shops keep different hours during the Easter period. The hours change somewhat each year and will be announced shortly before Easter.

April 1 - 9am - 9pm
April 2 - 9am - 9pm
April 3 - 9am - 4pm
April 5 - 9am - 9pm
April 6 - 9am - 9pm
April 7 - 9am - 9pm
April 8 - 9am - 9pm
April 9 - Good Friday - 1pm - 7pm
April 10 - Easter Saturday - 9am - 3pm
April 11 - Easter Sunday - Closed
April 12 - Closed
April 13 - Merchants resume normal hours.
Many Greeks return home for Easter and that can also impact businesses.
