Croatia Fest Production

Croatia Fest Production We proudly announce a new beginning! We present four festivals: Folk Fest, Dance Fest, Brass Fest, and Choir Fest.

Istria Folk Fest and Adriatica Folk Fest are now Croatia Fest Production, preserving the same spirit, tradition, and quality. Croatia Fest Production is the leading festival organizer in Croatia, dedicated to preserving and promoting our rich folk heritage. Our journey began in 2011 in Zagreb with the inaugural Zagreb Folk Fest, followed in 2012 by Adriatica Folk Fest on the Kvarner coast. In 2016

, we expanded our family with Istra Folk Fest, which has since become a beloved annual tradition across Istria. As of 2025, we proudly embrace a new identity—Croatia Fest Production—while preserving the same passion, tradition and top-quality experience. We continue to build cultural bridges by bringing the finest ensembles from Europe and the world to Croatia. Under our new brand, we now offer four distinct festivals: • Folk Fest – a celebration of folk rhythms and traditions • Dance Fest – an energetic showcase of dance artistry • Brass Fest – the mighty power of brass harmonies • Choir Fest – deeply moving choral performances. Step with us into this exciting new chapter, where tradition meets innovation and every performance becomes a one-of-a-kind experience!

🎥 What happened last night in Novigrad? Pure magic! 🌟💃
On August 27th, Croatia Folk Fest took over Veliki Trg and turned it into a dance floor of the world.

The square was buzzing — full of smiling faces, clapping hands, and hearts wide open. 👏 Seven groups from six countries brought their traditions to life through music, dance, and stunning folk costumes that spoke louder than words.

There was rhythm, color, emotion… and that special something you can’t quite describe — you just feel it. Novigrad was breathing folklore, and we were breathing right along with it. ❤️

Thanks to everyone who made this night unforgettable. Watch the video and relive the joy, the unity, and the beauty of a world dancing together.

🌾 FOLKLORE BRINGS US TOGETHER – RAIN OR SHINE! 🌾
Dear friends of tradition, Croatia Folk Fest in Buje on August 28th will go on 🎉 no matter what the weather says!

💃🕺 If the skies bless us with sunshine, we’ll dance under the open sky in the Atrium of the Public Open School Buje (POU Buje). But if the rain joins the celebration, we’ll simply move the music, the colors and the smiles indoors — to the 🎶 Concert Hall of the Public open School Buje (POU Buje) — where the rhythm of our hearts and the sound of tamburicas will be just as alive.

🌍 Come and feel the spirit of tradition, the beauty of folk costumes, and the joy of dances that erase all boundaries.

🎺 We’ve got a special surprise for you!
This Saturday, alongside the finest Polish brass bands at the Croatia Brass Fest in Buje, the stage will come alive with the unmistakable sound of our very own local treasure – The Brass Band of the Italian Community of Buje! 🇮🇹💛

Founded on March 16, 1989, thanks to maestro Pino Vok, this beloved ensemble has been nurturing a musical tradition dating all the way back to 1841. Over the years, they’ve graced countless stages – from local celebrations to international gatherings – and even brought home second place and the Pope John Paul II Silver Medal in 1994 in Piove di Sacco. 🏅

Their performances burst with energy, blending rock, ’80s disco, and Istro-Venetian melodies, enchanting audiences across Istria – including unforgettable shows at the Istralandia water park. In recent years, they’ve performed at the Mittel Europa Festival in Split, at brass band gatherings in Istria, and at festivals in Italy, Mali Lošinj, and Malta. 🌍🎶

Led over the decades by many distinguished conductors, the band has been under the baton of maestro Stefano Pastorcich since October 2024.

💛🎶 Don’t miss this magical blend of tradition, talent, and joy – join us this Saturday in Buje! 🎶💛
