French nights on the Albanian Riviera: our French parties in Ksamil and Saranda in 2026
Four French nights on this site in 2026: three at Greg Beach Club in Ksamil, running until 04:30 or 05:00, and a Sunday boat party from Saranda.
Looking for a French party in Ksamil? In 2026 four French nights on this site had official ticket pages, and other French nights were billed in Ksamil as well. Three of ours were late club nights at Greg Beach Club in Ksamil, set to French rap, hip-hop and urban hits. The fourth, Le Classico, took a French DJ set out to sea from Saranda's seafront on Sunday evenings. Below is how each night ran, taken from the official ticket pages, and what to do now if you want to be there in 2027.
Four nights, one sound
Our four French nights of 2026 shared a soundtrack: French rap, hip-hop and urban hits, with oriental tracks added on Marrakech nights. Three of them were held at Greg Beach Club in Ksamil and started late, between 23:30 and midnight. The fourth was a boat party that boarded in the early evening on Saranda's seafront promenade.
On the dates on sale, each had its own weekday: Tuesday for Marrakech, Wednesday for La Parisienne, Friday for LA FRENCH and Sunday for Le Classico at sea. The dates below are the ones listed on the official ticket pages in 2026.
LA FRENCH at Greg Beach Club
LA FRENCH is the name on the poster; the ticket page lists it as French Party – Ksamil. In 2026 it was dated Friday 4 September, from 00:00 to 04:30, at Greg Beach Club. The music was French rap, hip-hop and urban hits from a team of DJs, with an MC hosting the night.
The ticket page set out to bring a Paris night out to Ksamil, and it noted that entry was limited. Whenever it has a date on sale, booking online before the night is the simple way to make sure you're in.
Marrakech: French rap with an oriental touch
Marrakech used the same venue, the same hours and the same DJ team as LA FRENCH, and changed the colour of the night: the ticket page listed the music as French rap, urban and oriental hits.
It also had the most dates on sale of the three club nights: three Tuesdays in August 2026, the 11th, the 18th and the 25th, each from 00:00 to 04:30. If you want the French sound with an oriental twist, this is the one to watch for.
La Parisienne: our longest French night
La Parisienne ran on Wednesday 2 September 2026, from 23:30 to 05:00. It started half an hour earlier and finished half an hour later than LA FRENCH and Marrakech, which made it the longest of the French nights on this site.
The ticket page gives the venue as GREG Restaurant, on the SH81 in Ksamil, and describes a night held right on the beach at Greg Beach Club, with capacity capped. The music: French rap, hip-hop and urban hits.
Le Classico: the French boat party from Saranda
Le Classico – French Boat Party was billed for every Sunday from Saranda; the 2026 dates on sale were 16, 23 and 30 August. You boarded from 17:30 on the seafront promenade, Shëtitorja Naim Frashëri, and the boat cast off at 18:00; its poster gave the return as 21:00. The ticket page put the party aboard the Viking Ship, the Vikingen boat: fireworks, a bottle show and a French-music DJ set, with one drink included in the ticket.
Departure was fixed at 18:00, so give yourself time to find the boarding point. It's the only one of the four that starts in the early evening.
Building a French week
Line up the 2026 dates on this site and the French nights covered four weekdays: Tuesday at Marrakech, Wednesday at La Parisienne, Friday at LA FRENCH and Sunday on Le Classico. No single week had all four on sale, so whenever dates are on sale, check which ones fall during your stay.
Other nights sat close to this sound. The Showcase night, billed as American Gangster, brought rap, drill and a live stage set on Wednesday 12 August 2026, from 23:00 until late. The White Party on the Vikingen had a French DJ on board on Fridays, boarding at 23:00. And the Sunday White Party at Greg Beach shared two dates with Le Classico, 23 and 30 August.

Where to stay for French nights
Three of the four French nights were at Greg Beach Club in Ksamil and finished at 04:30 or 05:00, so a bed in Ksamil keeps the trip home short. Le Classico boarded on Saranda's seafront, 12.7 km from Greg Beach by road, about 21 minutes by car on a measured route without traffic.
Whichever base you pick, organise your late ride home in the afternoon, well before the party. The getting-around guide explains your options for the late run between Ksamil and Saranda.
