Set in the distinctive atmosphere of the Vrsar waterfront, the summer programme Istra in Vrsar is organised by the Vrsar Tourist Board as a series of promotional evenings combining cultural entertainment with presentations of selected destinations from inland and eastern Istria.
The concept is designed to showcase the diversity of the Istrian region and bring visitors closer to its local identities, traditions, and cultural heritage. Each evening is dedicated to a different destination, presented through a cultural and entertainment programme alongside local products and authentic gastronomic specialities.
Throughout the summer, the Vrsar waterfront becomes a meeting point for different parts of Istria, offering visitors the opportunity to experience the region’s cultural and tourist diversity in one place.
