Vrsar entrances its numerous visitors with the rousing aroma of fresh grilled fish, as part of the rich Istrian culinary offer, and cheerful socializing while listening to music and dancing throughout the whole summer, from May to September.
The favourite town promenade, the “riva”, takes on a brand-new look from May to September, becoming a warm and welcoming host to the most popular fiesta celebrating fishermen and their catch.
During the fishermen’s festivals, savour fresh seafood from the crystal-clear Adriatic, learn the secrets of successful fishing from the locals, and finally—accompanied by a glass of top-quality Istrian Malvasia—sing your heart out, inspired by the sea's treasure.
The Vrsar Fishermen’s Festivals are lively celebrations of seafood and maritime tradition, lasting long into the warm Mediterranean night under a sky full of stars.
The start of the festivities is at 5 pm.
