About the tour
Albanian Night is Tirana’s first-ever nightly show teaching visitors about Albanian culture with an all-encompassing traditional dance and music experience.
The night unfolds with participants putting on traditional Albanian clothes and learning all about their significance in Albanian traditional life. As you dress up as an Albanian, you will find yourself entering the ancient world of the Kanun, Northern Albania’s time-honored code of conduct which dictated social hierarchies, familial relations and the rule of law.
Guests will participate in and enjoy a range of performances and experiences showcasing local culture, all while interacting with each other and our experienced and knowledgeable staff, dancers and cultural experts. This experience is full of surprises and will immerse you in local culture and traditions as you soak up Albania’s intangible cultural heritage.
