The eleventh Island Products Fair will be held in Tkon on the island of Pasman on during the much loved Skraping 2020 event, and will last for three days from the 6th to the 8th of March, 2020.

As Morski writes on the 23rd of February, 2020, the traditional fair will be open on Friday from 10:00 to 20:00. The grand opening of the eleventh Island Prodicts Fair will be held on Saturday from 10:10 with the performance of local klapa groups from Tkon. The Island Products Fair will also be held on Sunday from 08:00 to 13:00.

The aim of organising this fair is to encourage the development of island production, to preserve the island’s traditions and authenticity, and to brand the products through the prestigious Croatian Island Product label, and since back in 2010, the Skraping race has worn the prestigious ”badge” as an intangible island product.

The Island Products Fair will feature over forty island exhibitors with products labelled “Croatian Island Product/Hrvatski otocni proizvod”.

The official announcement of the winner of Skraping 2020 will be held on the 7th of March, 2020 at the restaurant “Sovinje” at 19:00, and as part of the announcement of the winner, from 19:30 to 20:00 there will be a Diploma Ceremony for the best product exhibited at the fair, as well as a thank you to all of the fair’s participants.

On Saturday, March the 7th, 2020, a joint dinner will be organised for the exhibitors of the fair, once again with performances from local music/klapa groups, at the “Đardin” restaurant in Tkon from 20:00 onwards.

On Sunday, March the 8th, 2020, a lecture on the topic of Croatian island products will be held at the Tkon Skraping Centre, thanks to the lecturer Mrs. Ljubica Ajdukovic Ugarkovic.

On the same day, from 09:30 to 10:30, at the Skraping Centre, there will be a HOP (CIP) workshop for making liqueurs, performed by Ljiljana Jakovljev from KUU “Kunjka”, as well as a knitting workshop held by Jadran Lukacic.
