Customer Reviews
We had New years eve 2025/2026 here, fireworks were amazing. Just watchout for some places because they can charge two 0.33l small bottles Stela beers, one gin tonic and one rakia whooping 5.500 leks (55€). Yes, it's a classic robbery. Other then that this square is really nice, lot of things to do, ferris wheel, cars, different games, food in stalls...
Skanderbeg Square and the Plaza Tirana are full of life! During my stay in December, there seemed to be something happening every night new vendors, events being set up or taken down, and people enjoying the festive atmosphere. One evening, I noticed a red carpet by the Opera House with cars parked nearby and dozens of photographers. I walked over, took a few photos, and later learned it was a celebration honoring the local football team. Such a lively and energetic place — Tirana really knows how to keep things happening!
Ось оновлений варіант відгуку англійською, без згадок про музеї: --- The main square of Tirana is a vibrant and welcoming space, especially during the Christmas season. Right now, the area is beautifully decorated with a large Christmas tree, which adds a festive atmosphere to the whole square. There are plenty of kiosks selling souvenirs, snacks, and local treats, making it a great place to walk around and explore. The square also offers fun activities like karting and various entertainment spots that create a lively, family-friendly environment. Overall, it’s a great place to enjoy the holiday spirit and experience the energetic vibe of Tirana.
