Protesters in Tirana marched outside Parliament and City Hall on the 58th day of anti-government demonstrations, demanding political reforms.

Demonstrators gathered in Tirana for the 58th consecutive day of anti-government protests targeting Prime Minister Edi Rama and the country's political establishment.

Protesters marched through the capital's main thoroughfares, stopping outside Parliament and Tirana Municipality, as well as along Bajram Curri Boulevard. Crowds called for the prime minister's resignation and arrest while chanting slogans against lawmakers, designating the legislature a "parliament of crime". Protesters also chanted "Rama in prison, Berisha in prison", demanding widespread political reforms and a new governance system.

Alongside the march, organizers screened a documentary recalling the multi-year activist movement to protect Tirana's National Theatre, which originated during a 2019 cultural festival.
