January 27, 2020 – The Croatian National Tourist Board is conducting its first branding campaign this year, which will be implemented in different key periods, in 16 key markets, until the end of July.

“The strength of the Croatian tourism brand has been continuously growing for several years, making our country increasingly recognized as a diverse and quality tourist destination. In order to keep up with positive trends, we have created a brand campaign that is carefully planned as it follows the preferences of each of the 16 selected markets. Our goal is to offer our guests what they are looking for, and that we are successful in showing the preliminary results of the latest TOMAS research, according to which their satisfaction with most elements of the offer grows, especially with the hospitality of the hosts, hiking and biking trails, the presentation of cultural heritage, the quality of information in the destination, but also the variety of events and the gastronomic offer,” said Croatian National Tourist Board Director Kristjan Stanicic.
Otherwise, as previously announced, the Croatian Tourist Board will carry out four major promotional campaigns in 2020, that is, two pre- and postseason promotional campaigns and two brand campaigns.
In addition to the main campaigns of the Croatian National Tourist Board, in 2020, there will also be campaigns for the promotion of business and nautical tourism, advent and a campaign aimed at the domestic market, which will stimulate domestic tourist traffic in the periods before and after the season.
