As we are a few minutes away from the concert in "Skënderbej" Square, the mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, received in his office the world-famous singer, Ricky Martin, to whom he presented the "Key to the City" as a welcome sign. 

"We had a Latin season. We started with Enrique Iglesias, Ochoa, the Hemingway Jazz Festival and Ricky Martin. I am proud because Ricky is also the marketing agent of Tirana and Albania and today I am really grateful that you came to Tirana with your friends to give us positive energy. I'm sure that more than a concert, it will be a joint singing, with thousands of people in the square, who can't wait to give you that warm Albanian energy and I wish you to come back. Perhaps, one day you will find a second home here and have a piece of your presence in Albania. As a sign of respect and gratitude, on behalf of all the citizens of Tirana, I would like to give you the Key of the City of Tirana, as a symbol of an open door, an open heart and an open mind, and as a reminder that it is always time to return to Albania with your key in your pocket," said Veliaj. 

While the famous singer Ricky Martin thanked the mayor Veliaj for the hospitality and said that he will talk about the Albanians and their positive energy everywhere. 

"Surprise after surprise. I am super grateful for the invitation. It is a great surprise to meet you. I felt at home from the moment I came here. I will take with me the spirit of Albanians and I will talk about Albanians wherever I go because it is fantastic to be here. Tonight we will exchange this energy between the audience and what we bring from Puerto Rico, which is passion, love, honesty, transparency. It will be very special!", said singer Ricky Martin.
