When were the French nights of 2026?
Only two French nights printed an exact date in 2026: La Parisienne on Wednesday, 2 September 2026 and La Guerre on 28 August 2026. The others gave a weekday, or no day at all, so the table keeps them apart rather than guessing.
| Night | Venue | When | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|
| La Parisienne | Greg Beach Club, Ksamil | Wednesday, 2 September 2026 | 23:30–05:00 |
| La Guerre, French x Italian | Mango Club, Sarandë | 28 August 2026 | 23:30–04:00 |
| Le Classico | The Vikingen, Sarandë promenade | Sundays | 17:30–21:00 |
| La French | Greg Beach Club, Ksamil | No day published | 00:00–04:30 |
| Marrakech | Greg Beach Club, Ksamil | No day published | 00:00–04:30 |
| French Night | La Guerre, Principotes, Ksamil | Every week, per the venue | 22:30 |
Greg, the French corner of Ksamil
Greg Beach Club carried three of them. La French and Marrakech were twins: same hours, same booth (DJ Njoya, DJ Adryy and DJ Ond, with MC Kino on the mic) and a playlist of French rap and urban tracks, except that Marrakech slipped oriental songs into it. La Parisienne came last and stayed latest, on a Wednesday at the very start of September.
The posters of the first two were signed the French way, 'Greg Beach Club · Ksamil – Albanie', and gave no day at all, only the hours. La Parisienne is the one to note if you follow dates: its ticket page put it on Wednesday, 2 September 2026, 23:30–05:00.
One at sea, one in town
Le Classico took the French sound onto the water every Sunday, with fireworks and foam on the Vikingen; it was the only French night that ended before the club doors opened.
Its poster set the timing: boarding at 17:30, departure at 18:00, back at 21:00. That leaves the whole night free for a club afterwards, in Sarandë or in Ksamil.
In Sarandë itself, Mango Club staged La Guerre, a duel between French and Italian hits whose final round fell on a Friday at the end of August. The poster billed that night as the last edition, 23:30–04:00, at Mango Club on Rruga Rilindja.
Principotes keeps a French Night
Principotes lists a French Night among the weekly soirées of La Guerre, here the name of its own nightclub, not the Mango party. Its season runs from May to September and the club opens at 22:30.
The same list includes a Notte Italiana and a Masquerade, so French and Italian nights sit side by side in its programme. Principotes publishes the soirées but not their weekdays, which is the one thing to ask before you plan around them.
What music do the French nights play?
Rap in French, above all. The Greg nights billed French rap with hip-hop and urban tracks, Marrakech added oriental songs, La Guerre set French hits against Italian ones and Le Classico put a French DJ on the boat.
Only La Guerre asked you to dress up; the Greg nights set no dress code on their pages, unlike the all-white parties in our white parties story.
How do you plan a French night in Ksamil?
Start late and sort out the ride home first. French nights start late and end later, so for the Ksamil ones know how you will get back to Sarandë before you leave; Saranda or Ksamil weighs the two towns for a night out.
When will the 2027 French nights be announced?
Nothing for 2027 has been published: when we last read the ticket listings for Albania, on 31 October 2026, no night was on sale. When dates appear, they will go on the French nights page and the 2027 page.
