Feel like a local

Travelling offers you a glimpse of different customs and lifestyles. It’s an opportunity to hang out with the locals, understand their take on life and hear some insider tips for a more fulfilling travel experience. One thing is certain, there is no better way to feel the heart and soul of our destinations than taking part in their festivities.

Events in Novigrad

We’ve poured all our passion for food into Aminess Wine&Gourmet Nights. These dinners are an opportunity for you to sample top delicacies at our restaurants, prepared by Istrian star chefs led by David Skoko, with participation of prominent regional winemakers. Wine aficionados have two more Novigrad events to choose from: Wine and Walk by the Sea and Wine Trail, another fantastic opportunity to taste the best wines of our terroir. Music fans will be thrilled with jazz and music nights, runners with the Novigrad Cittanova RUN race, and children with street performer festivals and stargazing with telescopes. Tons of fun for the whole family!

Events on the island of Krk

There's always something cooking on the island of Krk! The spring and the autumn days bring popular sports and gourmet events, while in the summer you can attend festivals and events that combine concerts, performances and local produce such as šurlice pasta, lamb, asparagus and figs. Another must-visit festival is one dedicated to Žlahtina wine. It's really worth the trip to Vrbnik, and while you’re there, be sure to pass through the narrowest street in the world, located in the town's centre. Cyclists are invited to the MTB marathon, and hiking enthusiasts to the Black sheep event in Baška.

Events on the Pelješac peninsula

The Taste Pelješac gourmet event will spoil your taste buds with the best southern Dalmatian red wines and delicious traditional food. You cannot pay a visit to this wine-growing region without tasting brilliant Croatian wines, Postup and Dingač, produced from the highly-praised Plavac Mali variety. The klapa a cappella singing groups will add an authentic touch to your holiday, along with numerous folk festivities. The best oysters are worth a travel to Ston and while there, be sure to climb its spectacular walls. If you’re a passionate runner, sign up for the STONe Wall Marathon and run 4, 15 or 42 kilometres along the longest fortified wall in Europe!

Events on the island of Korčula

Experience unique events on Korčula, many of which are held only on this magical Mediterranean island. On of them is moreška, a romantic sword dance taking place in the town of Korčula for many years now, and kumpanija, held in Blato and Smokvica. Korčula’s cheerful residents will serve you seafood specialities paired with fine Pošip and Grk wines at summer wine festivals and fishermen’s evenings. Folklore evenings are an ideal opportunity to listen to Dalmatian klapa multipart singing and check why it has earned its place on the UNESCO’s list of intangible cultural heritage.
