Rock, Pop, Jazz all around the "Blloku"

3.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Plenty of Bars, Cafes and Night Clubs all around the area of the so-called Blloku. To mention some, Charles's, Radio, New Irish. Outside the Blloku, close to the Parliament are the Living Room (big two floor place, good oldies music but also recent tracks) and the Folie. But careful, males alone are rarely accepted. The nightclubs start to get full around midnight on the weekends, and they close when the last person leaves....usually around 5 or 6 am.

UPDATE OF 2011: A cool new place has been opened, behind the Railway Station, called Tirana Express, the alternative art space of Tirana :). THere are plenty of social and entertaining activities there on a regular basis, from documentary movies, photo-painting exhibitions, to live concerts etc. For more info and exact location, visit: http://tiranaekspres.wordpress.com/

Putting up the scarf i donated to the bar.

At the national football stadium you have a little cosy bar with football scarfs from many of the teams that has visited the stadium over the years.
It´s a fairly quiet little bar, but it has a good vibe and they are very friendly towards foreign football fans.
I donated my "danish national football team" to the bar, so when you see the denmark scarf on the wall then it used to belong to me :O)

Blokku: Nightlife in Tirana
socheid profile photo
socheid 244 reviews

The main area in Tirana for nightlife is the area called Blokku.

I didn't see even a hint of any trouble when I was out and about in Blokku at night during my weekend in Tirana. Everybody I met was very polite.

Palace of Culture, Tirana

This is a clean, bright and conveniently located bar on Skenderbeg square, where you can drink Korca beer, and watch football on the big screen. It's nothing special, but it's easily located underneat the big Opera sign on the Palace of Culture.

Buddha Bar: Serene
Greatwalk0 profile photo
Greatwalk0 280 reviews

Buddha bar is an upscale Tirana night spot. Decked out in an Asian motif, Buddha Bar is a neat place to go after work and have a drink. Enjoy a hookah and a drink (Buddha Bar sports a full bar, including various scotches) and relax on one of the many couches.

Very friendly staff!

A cover charges is charged after 11:00 PM.

Dress Code: Professional

Take Five!: Great Jazz

Greatwalk0 280 reviews

The best (perhaps only) live jazz in town can be found at "Take Five" bar in Tirana, located near the American Embassy on Albason Road. The live music gets started around 10:30 PM and is excellent! Some of the best jazz piano that I have ever listened to. Additionally, the bar itself is well decorated and has a very friendly staff.

Enjoy a beer and listen to some great music in this upmarket Tirana bar!

The Living Room: One of the best views in the city
Ruai profile photo

3.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

Ruai 303 reviews

This is a cool nightspot located on the roof of a building which reminds me a lot of Summer clubs in Athens and some of the Greek Islands. Its all very laidback and expensive. Its popular with foreigners and well-off Albanians and the crowd tends to be beautiful!

Dress Code: Dress to impress (or be a foreigner and they'll probably let you in anyway)

A great night out, fun-loving people, trendy music, DJs and live performances. The old villa converted into this bar retains its character, but has modern touches in terms of colours and themes. The garden outside is crowdy and live performances take place during weekends.
