The International Rijeka Carnival (February)
The biggest and most spectacular of its kind in Croatia, and one of the biggest in Europe, the Rijeka
Carnival is a week-long extravaganza of parades, balls, theatrical performances, concerts and general
tomfoolery which each year attracts over 100,000 spectators. Apparently having their origins in the
centuries’ old traditions of scaring away evil spirits and welcoming in the new spring, the festivities turn
this coastal town into a riot of colour, creativity, fun and laughter. So if you’re looking for an alternative
escape from winter blues this could be right up your street.

Dubrovnik New Year’s Eve Festival
If you want an atmospheric location to see in the New Year then look no further than Dubrovnik’s historic
Old Town. This year promises a string of concerts, performances and other festivities on the main
promenade – including a free cocktail-tasting session! Scheduled to last well into the night.

The Dubrovnik Summer Festival (July – August)
The biggest and most spectacular of the many Summer Festivals in the towns of the Dalmatian Coast,
it’s a pulsating 45-day celebration of music, theatre and art, with a great closing fireworks display.
The perfect time to visit the city if you’re a ‘culture vulture’- but prepare yourself for the crowds.
If you value your sleep it’s probably also better to stay outside the Old Town.
