Activity info
Turkish Night Show is organized not only to let you experience Turkish culture and traditions but also to have a real entertainment and show after a relaxing Cappadocia day. We pick you up from your hotel in Goreme or other towns of Cappadocia at 20:00 in winter and 20:30 in summer and drive you to one of the cave restaurants of Cappadocia where the show will be performed.
The show begins with a short, 10 minutes version of Whirling Dervishes Ceremony which will give you an idea about how it is. For the real, religious ceremony we suggest ”Whirling Dervishes Ceremony” tour program. During the whole night, there will be live music performed by a traditional costumes wearing band. After the dervishes, folk dancers come in their local dresses and the dances start.
The dancers, including the bride and groom, come on the dance floor and perform the traditional way, which a girl gets married in Turkey. The bride dressed in a beautiful red dress dances in the middle and the groom comes up and put on different shows for her. He first shows how handsome he is, and than how strong he is and finally how rich he is. After rejecting all these shows one by one, the bride accepts to get married with him when the groom tells that his heart beats for her. While they are starting to their wedding dance, all the guests are invited to dance with them, as well.
After a couple of other folk dances from different parts of Turkey, the highlight of the night comes: Belly Dancer! She makes her breath-taking dance and then goes around all the tables to take one man from each table. The men have a great time while they are learning the secrets of belly-dancing with some basic figures. Their wives? Well, it was made sure there were no sharp objects around, before the belly dancer!
After some other dances and shows like fire dance, caucasian dance with knives and drum show, the night ends around 23:45 and we drive you back to your hotel for a deep sleep.
During the night the waiters will serve unlimited soft and alcholic drinks with appetizers. The main course will be lamb with rice, the traditional wedding meal of Turkey.

I cannot fault this cave restaurant for their food. It was amazingly well made and the menu had some creative Turkish food. Quite special.The bell dancer was fantastic; it was a very nice and interesting night for us.
We had a great night out entertainment was great and well worth booking to go to this. Would do it again.
I booked dinner for 2 of us on line on website. As promised we were on arrival given priority seating – in fact the best seats. And also unlimited local drinks. The belly dance show excelent, the food was great and the service also. I was able to take lots of photos and mini videos to remind us of the memorable…
I love seeing bellydance events and especially performing on stage.
Great belly dance show.. The belly turkish dancer will make your night memorable. Highly recommended.
The start of the show was promising and hopeful with a belly dance (something i hadn't seen before) and good traditional dances. Vey,very good food. Very good waiters..
I wasn't terribly disappointed by the experience but it also wasn't a must-see show. The belly dancers were talented and the show was pretty long so it's not like you get short-changed on entertainment. That said, the show is pretty cheesy. That doesn't mean that it can't be fun though. Much of the experience is dependent on the other people.
There’s a mix of music, folklore dancing and belly dancing and although the belly dancing was probably the best, overall it was a fun, entertaining show.
Went to the Turkish night with our friends had a wonderfull time the show was lovely lots of dancing belly dancers female and male. The food was ok and lots of it but the wine was very nice, you could have beer and soft drinks from the bar free.
The food consists of a 3 course meal of traditional Turkish cuisine with a good choice of dishes to suit all preferences. The evenings entertainment is varied and fun including belly dancers, traditional Ottoman dancing and comedy routines. This evening is very good value for money and a great way to spend a night out when visiting Cappadocia.
