Deep Purple will play Telekom Center Athens on 13 October 2026, their only Greek date, with the rising British act Jayler as special guest<\/h2>\n
\"Live <\/figure>\n

The band has spent more than 50 years as one of hard rock\u2019s defining names: a long run of records, sold-out rooms, and a place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. \u201cSmoke on the Water\u201d and \u201cHighway Star\u201d are still the songs the set is built around. \u201cChild in Time,\u201d first released in 1970, has had a second life in the trailer for the new season of Stranger Things<\/em>, which put the track in front of a younger audience.<\/p>\n

The Athens show also follows the 2024 album =1<\/em>, the latest sign that the group is still recording as well as touring. On 13 October the bill pairs that catalogue with Jayler, a newer British rock act.<\/p>\n
