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.

The dancing was excellent the food bad..
The belly dancer had amazing control over her body. We had a 3 course dinner which was an appetizer plate, a choice of fish or chicken and fresh fruit which was served during the belly-dancing show.
Very good dancers, beautiful costumes, and the theme giving us foreigners a chance to learn more about Turkish culture. I am 100% vegetarian, which is a big problem to eat in most places. I found a delicious variety of vegetarian options!
A noite foi excelente! Comida e bebida à vontade! Como estávamos de aniversário de casamento fomos presenteados com um espumante e música em nossa homenagem! O show com danças típicas turcas e dança do ventre é fantástico! Vale à pena assistir! Recomendo.
This was one of the highlights of our Cappadocia trip. What a brilliant ending to a great trip!
I went here with a few mates and had a great time. Lovely food and drink, beautiful and talented dancers. They really get the audience involved and the waiting staff are very friendly, too. All-in-all I cannot recommend enough – top marks.
Food is different to the usual Turkish food. It has more flair and interest. Great traditional dancing and the audience participation piece was good fun.
Best meal and service I have in Cappadoca. Cave restaurant such beautiful place.
Traditional turkish entertainment, great fun, from the turkish dancers to the belly dancer who was great. The breakdancers always go down well and even the staff show is excellent.
Good night out for families. Such a fabulous meal in a beautiful atmosphere great cave restaurant.
