EVENTS IN JULY IN TIRANA

July 11: This event in Tirana you absolutely cannot miss. The Tirana Photo Festival is an annual event that celebrates the art of photography and promotes Albania as a photographic destination. Organized by DMO Albania (Destination Managing Organisation) based in Tirana, the festival has seen the participation of numerous photographers from both Albania and abroad in its previous six editions, quickly becoming the most popular photography festival in the country. The festival is open to amateur and professional photographers of all ages, focusing on youth. The theme for the 7th event, #TiranaPhotoFestival2024, is “ROOTS.” The award ceremony will occur on July 11, 2024, at Reja Tirana.

Martin Garrix, an internationally renowned DJ, will perform for the first time in Albania, in Tirana for the local audience and his international fans, who will eagerly follow the event enthusiastically. Prepare for a spectacular show filled with pulsating beats and electrifying energy, bringing lasting memories to those attending. After Brazilian Cultural Week, the International Cultural Week will stop and return in September.

In July, the weather is so hot in Tirana, and everyone tries to escape the city, going to the beach in Durres or other cities nearby or going outdoors the town, by mountains, lakes, or rivers. We are lucky that you can reach the sea in Tirana in only 30 minutes by going to Durres or other beaches like Shengjin, Lezha, and Vlora. You can go and come back in a day. You can also go to Dajti Mount or the Erzeni River. The distances are short, and these are all daily tours.

In addition, Tirana is surrounded by Swimming Pools. You can choose from a desirable number of pools, allowing you to cool off from the heat while spending time with friends and family. In the afternoon, all the bars and restaurants are full of people. You can enjoy activities in open space at Skanderbeg Square or Sheshi Italia. Don’t miss the chance to take photos of Tirana and post them with the hashtag #tiranasummer2024. We will share them at Visit Tirana, making your memories of the city unforgettable.
