HPPC is leasing leases to the Municipality of Athens a part of the surrounding area of the Goudi Olympic Center as well as the central competition arena, a gross field area of approximately 8,500 square meters.

Athens Mayor Costas Bakoyiannis in his statement, immediately after signing the contract, emphasized: “The new generation and the sports clubs of our city are a living, dynamic part of society that is “thirsty” for modern and attractive sports venues. We are happy, because step by step, with planning and persistence, we are upgrading the existing infrastructure on the one hand, and on the other we are increasing the list of football fields that the Athenians need. We continue to invest in sports and the cooperation with ETAD for the utilization of the Olympic Center in Goudi proves once again our strong intention to cooperate with all agencies, in order to make use of unused spaces, for the benefit of the Athenians”.
