What to do in November 2020 in Tirana

November is the month of national pride and glory. The historic month of the true heroes of Albania. Nevethless this year, there is no gathering and no festivity. So the best suggestion is to go in the nature and stay healthy. 

28th November is the biggest day of our nation. 28th November 1912 is the day when Albanians from all over Albania, united in Vlora, declared the Independence of Albania.

29th November is the day of the Liberation of Albania, one of the most important moments in the history of our country.

 This year we have 108 anniversary of Independence and 76th anniversary of Country's Liberation

Tirana Liberation Day (17 November)

76 years have passed since the day of the liberation of the Albanian capital, Tirana. On this day, 127 martyrs sacrificed themselves who fought for an ideal where their biggest dream was the freedom of the country and the people.

Online Book Fair

The Tirana Book Fair for this year is not taking place in the "Palace of Congresses" as it was the tradition, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

During these days, publishers, writers, poets, translators, readers and people of culture meet for book discussions, presentations of new titles, but also debate tables, live stream, or in physical environments, respecting all the conditions of security.
