Other sponsors included the then-mayor of Patras, Georgios Roufos, Gustavos Clauss, Hamburger, Langouras, the Triantis Brothers, Panagiotis Brothers, father of Dimitrios Gounaris, Epameinondas Maximos, father of Dimitrios Maximos

The Apollon Theatre is one of only four neoclassic theatres that survive in Greece (the other three are the Malliaropouleio Theatre in Tripoli, which opened in 1910, the Apollo Theatre in Syros, opened in 1864 and the Piraeus Municipal Theatre in Piraeus, opened in 1895).
