Advent in Zagreb

CroatiaFestivalsDate pending official confirmation

Advent in Zagreb turns Croatia’s capital into a festive winter setting from late November through January. This seasonal Christmas-market experience brings together ice-skating rinks, stalls serving mulled wine, artisan craft markets and illuminated displays across the city. Visitors can wander Zagreb’s central areas, using Ban Jelačić Square—a lively meeting point and hub in the downtown pedestrian zone—as a convenient urban reference, while the historic Upper Town adds atmosphere, including St. Mark’s Church and the Grič Tunnel, a public pedestrian attraction that hosts cultural events. The programme and opening arrangements can change, so check current official dates and details before travelling.
