The story

Saranda Summer Beer Fest in Saranda

An August beer and wine tasting festival in the coastal city of Saranda, now in at least its eighth edition since 2018, combining live music and food with a coastal Ionian setting distinct from Korça's larger inland beer festival. It gives visitors already touring the southern Riviera an easy, low-key evening stop.

Saranda Summer Beer Fest brings a substantial beer and wine tasting celebration to one of Albania's most popular southern coastal destinations each August, a season when Saranda's harbourfront and surrounding beaches are already at their busiest with both domestic and international visitors.

02

The mystery stays covered

That coastal setting, distinct from Korça's larger inland event, gives visitors already exploring the southern Riviera an easy, low-key evening without needing to travel further north to the country's more established beer festival circuit
