No, the Theatre of Dionysus no longer holds any events or performances and is strictly an archeological site. Visitors can explore the theater, sit in the seats, and get a sense of what performances here would have been like. Performances are held at the Roman-era Odeon of Herodes Atticus nearby.

Not entirely. Although the south slope of the Acropolis is wheelchair accessible from the main entrance with the help of an attendant, via a path leading to the west passageway of the Theatre of Dionysus, wheelchair users will not be able to ascend the slopes of the theater itself.

The Theatre of Dionysus is included as part of the broader Acropolis complex and admission ticket, which also covers other top Acropolis attractions such as the Parthenon, Erechtheion, the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Stoa of Eumenes, and the Old Temple of Athena Polias.
