Albania is a country full of energy, tradition, and vibrant cultural expression, and its calendar is packed with events that celebrate everything from music and film to heritage and food. One of the most anticipated events each year is Kala Festival, held on the stunning Ionian coast, drawing international crowds with its mix of electronic music and beachside relaxation. Similarly, UNUM Festival in Shëngjin blends music, art, and nature into a unique open-air experience.
