What to do in April 2023 in Tirana

Warm weather, springtime atmosphere, plenty of activities are some of the reasons you should visit Tirana in April. It is the most flourishing month in every sense.

Spring has come with rains during the month of April. Once again, the weather is warm, beautiful and if you have the right outfit, you can enjoy walking in the rain.

A Spring Adventure

Walking in the parks, Tirana Artificial Lake, Youth Park, the New Boulevard or traveling in rural areas is the best thing you can do in April. Visit Bovilla Lake, Farka lake, Peza, Peza Helmes and Lake, Shengjergj and the waterfall, Pellumbas and the cave, Preza, Petrela Castle, Tujan or Mali me Gropa, - all these places offer spectacular nature which is blossoming in April.

Outside Tirana 

If you travel outside of Tirana you will be amazed by the variety of landscapes. In contrast with the very modern and vivid city of Tirana, the villages in the surrounds are truly beautiful and charming. There are some agro-tourism farms that will impress you with their delicious organic foods cooked still in the Albanian traditional taste. Take some fresh air in a relaxing atmosphere. We recommend you to see our site (outside Tirana) and choose a place to visit especially during weekends. 

Other events

Tirana is becoming a popular hub for events, attracting foreign artists and interest. It is an energetic city with a very young population. World famous singers such as Dua Lipa, Bebe Rexha and Rita Ora have performed in the squares of Tirana, in a great atmosphere.
