Plans for the celebration of the 2400th birthday are set and the city prepares for this major event as a large part of the riva (waterfront) and the famous Tvrdalj square in front of the Petar Hektorović Palace is being paved these days.
The festivities will continue on the day of the St. Roko, the patron of the city in August and the actual celebration will take place in September – as a 4 days manifestation “Days in the Bay” (September 8 – 11, 2016).
Days in the Bay will be a celebration of the oldest civilisation in Croatia by a regatta of traditional wooden boats, exhibitions, workshops, gatherings, promotions and tastings of local food and wine and much more.
Interesting year for Stari Grad, we hope to bring you more information as we have it. Here is a short trailer for the Days in the Bay event.
