2023 Acropolis Swim Open in Athens, Greece Will Feature $54,500 in Prize Money

Greek swimmer Apostolos Christou takes bronze at European Championships

The upgraded 35th Acropolis Swim Open is set to take place from May 5-7 at the Athens Olympic Aquatic Center (Athens, Greece), with €50,000 ($54,500 USD) up for grabs amongst some of the top international athletes and coaches.

Unlike the 2022 Acropolis meet, the 2023 edition has been approved by World Aquatics as a qualifying meet for the 2023 World Championships in Fukoka, Japan and for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France. As a qualifying meet, there may be some fast times fired off as athletes make the last push to qualify for the summer championship season.

Below is the prize breakdown. A full breakdown of all the available prizes can be found here.
