We have partnered with Athens Kallithea FC to propose a next generation upgrade for the Grigoris Lamprakis Stadium, commonly known as “El Paso”.
In an initial phase, K-Studio will undertake the early conceptualization and re-envisioning of the project, as AKFC seeks to explore a modern venue for sport, music, and other forms of art, culture, and entertainment, while ensuring to honor the site’s history and character.
Built in 1970, Grigoris Lamprakis Stadium is a public stadium that is owned and operated by the Municipality of Kallithea. The stadium’s “El Paso” nickname is a reference to Sergio Leone’s 1965 Spaghetti Western film For a Few Dollars More (which had the Greek title “Duel in El Paso”) starring Clint Eastwood, as the stadium was built on the site of a quarry and features a tall rock along the north side of the pitch, which was thought to be reminiscent of scenes from the film.
The first visualizations of the new El Paso proposal are expected in Spring 2026.
