MANIFESTATIONS

 

THE INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN’S FESTIVAL

The International Children’s Festival enjoys a 50 year long tradition, and is without a doubt one of the trademarks of Šibenik. It begins in the mid June and lasts for two weeks. To me and probably most people here, this is the favorite part of the year, and the festival itself is like the most amazing story ever told. It’s the time when Šibenik transforms itself into one big playground. Puppet shows, movie premieres, concerts, children’s art shows, operas, musical/statuary/drama/movie workshops start overflowing the streets of Šibenik – Gorica, Republic of Croatia Square, Dobrić, Medulić and the Theatre. Through this amazing game, festival has an educational part, developing all the artistic forms of children's creativity. The opening day has traditionally been known as 'Šibenik's night', the most expected festivity in town. It's the night when everybody is out to enjoy the rhythms from numerous bars where local bands and DJs entertain the crowd till morning hours.

You  can get the festival tickets at the Theatre's ticket-office, and there's also Festival's reception where they can provide you with all the information you need.

TERRANEO

It incredible that this festival exists only for a year, and already so much is known about it. Let's just mention that British 'The Telegraph' has put it on the list of top 10 rock and pop summer festivals in Europe. The impressive list of performers, 3 open air stages, 3 DJ stages (AKA party zone), workshops on themes of ecology, the perfect, relaxing atmosphere, nearby beaches and visits to the beauties of Šibenik. The festival takes place in the mid August, in the ex military base ‘Bribirskih Knezova’, just 4 km from the centre. If you get a chance – you should definitely come!!

DALMATIAN CHANSON FESTIVAL

It’s no wonder that Šibenik is hosting one of the most important festivals in Croatia, Dalmatian chanson. You see, Šibenik is hometown to some of the most important music names in Croatia: Arsen Dedić, Mišo Kovač, Vice Vukov… The festival takes place is the second part of August, at the Republic of Croatia Square. There are two parts: the evening of old and the evening of new songs. It gives the whole town a special kind of vibe.

OFF JAZZ & BLUES FESTIVAL

Five years ago Šibenik got richer for another musical festival. It made all the jazz and blues lovers happy, and I’m sure that even those who are not the biggest fans of this type of music, will enjoy the festival's captivating atmosphere. It all takes places in the heart of the city centre, next to the walls of St Francis Church. Off jazz and blues festival is a refreshment you don't want to miss if you find yourself in Šibenik around that time. It takes place in mid July, and lasts for 3 days.
