Overview
- Prime Minister Edi Rama confirmed the Tirana concert on Thursday, setting July 11 for a one-night show.
- The government says a pop-up venue named Eagle Stadium will be built along the Tirana–Durrës corridor with space for about 60,000 people.
- Officials say ticket sales will fund the show, with presales announced for May 5 and public bodies helping to ease logistics.
- The booking follows bans and cancellations in the UK, France, Poland, and Switzerland, including a UK visa denial that sank London’s Wireless Festival.
- Activists and Jewish groups in Albania and abroad oppose the plan, warning it legitimizes past pro-Nazi statements, while other proposed European dates remain uncertain.
