From Nin to Posedarje
Besides the already announced Evenings of Croatian poetry from abroad (19th and 20th July) which are organized in cooperation with the University of Zadar, we would like to announce two additional events that will mark the Games but are not directly linked with the athletic program. One event will be a visit to the oldest Croatian royal town of Nin (20th July) where visitors can enjoy the old town in an evening accompanied with live music. The second event is a fishermen's night (festa) at Posedarje (22nd July), to be held at the sea promenade just after the soccer semi-final games at the local soccer stadium. Don't miss it!
