“The dancing millionaire", Gianluca Vacchi, was a special guest of the first Baku Shopping Festival.

Vacchi met with his fans in Baku on May 5-6 with a new concert program called ‘Enjoy’ in Elektra Hall.

During his stay in Baku, Vacchi walked around the city and familiarized himself with the attractions of the city.

Vacchi visited the National Flag Square, Icherisheher (Inner City), the pearl at the heart of Azerbaijan's cultural heritage.

"Baku struck with its incredible beauty, warmth and hospitality. I have visited Icherisheher, saw the Maiden Tower and other attractions. I like how the ancient and modern architecture blends in Baku. I also admire the Azerbaijani carpets. I have great fun here! It is very important for a creative person," he told local media.

"I'm a creative person and if I like the Azerbaijani music, I can dance under this music. It's all about the inspiration. In Baku, I met with Azerbaijani celebrities. It is possible that we will prepare a joint project in future. But for me the main thing in life is still ordinary people. They are my audience, they are my motivation.”

Photos taken during Vacchi’s tour in Baku were posted on the Facebook page of Baku Shopping Festival and Instagram.

The first-ever Baku Shopping Festival running in the capital from April 10 has already aroused great interest in the entire region. The growing number of tourists is heading to the capital of Azerbaijan to enjoy the opportunities the festival offers.

During the Festival, which includes shopping, entertainment, fashion and culture, many city malls offer special discounts, Tax Free, and temporary pop-up shops present a broad range of Azerbaijani and foreign brands. Baku Shopping Festival will last until May 10.
