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 belly dancer is entertaining, but all in all the performance is quite short but the dancers really made an effort, and the view was quite nice. We had excellent time the staff has impecable attitude. The food exceed our expectation.. I would definitely recommend to see this cave restaurant.
Had a wonderful turkish night. Lucky to get seating close to the stage and couldn't take eyes off the three gorgeous belly dancers on show. Food was good and was obliged when requested for a veg meal.
I highly recommend this how! We took our kids, ages 12 and 15 , and they were mesmerized. The costumes were gorgeous and the staging was beautiful. It’s a highly elaborate show with something for everyone, dancing, singing, acrobats, comedians etc.
Cave restaurant the place to go to truly feel like you are in Cappadocia. We will for sure revisit if we are in Cappadocia again.
Very characteristic restaurant, Cappadocian style built in a cave. The night was one of the best we have had in Cappadocia. The entertainment was first class with belly dancers male and female. The folk dancing was fantastic.
The dinner was beyond our expectations but we did love the belly dancers. We even imitated her but not did the dance as good as her ! This was a great experince and like to offer anyone who looks for a night Turkish dance night out.
