Tirana Dance Experience brings salsa and bachata dancers to the Albanian capital from Friday 4th to Sunday 6th December 2026, with workshops, parties and shows at Hotel Doro City. Organised by Bliss Dance Academy, the weekend runs in two rooms and includes socials, animations, live shows and a Bachata Jack & Jill competition with cash prizes. The lineup features Burak y Estefania, Willy & Lauriane, Zoran y Andjela, Antoni y Belen, Charlie y Vero and Giuseppe & Stefania, with more artists to be announced, and DJ Clau, DJ Trevor Anthony, DJ Lupo and DJ Wizard on the decks.

Tirana is a mixed salsa and bachata weekend rather than a bachata only congress, so expect both styles in the rooms and at the parties. Everything happens in one hotel, which keeps the weekend simple, and the full pass is fairly priced at 90 € for workshops, parties and shows. The Bachata Jack & Jill with cash prizes is the highlight for social dancers who like to compete. Passes are not refundable unless the event is cancelled.
