As well as being a beautiful historic country with many interesting sites and clear blue seas to visit, Croatia is also one of the biggest music hubs in the world with many festivals and music events taking place in the summer.
Hideout
Hideout Festival is a popular one amongst Brits and is still relatively young on the festival scene, only having started in 2011 on the island of Pag. As well as huge artists performing in Zrce’s open air venues, you can participate in boat parties and pool parties all whilst soaking up the Mediterranean sunshine. Headliners this year include Major Lazer, Stormzy and Diplo.

Outlook Festival
Outlook Festival is a bass music festival that takes place later in the year, where the weather starts to cool and you can swap your factor 50 for factor 30 sun cream. The main festival is close to the beautiful city Pula where you can also enjoy boat parties that sail out onto the breathtaking Adriatic sea. Acts this year include Dizzee Rascal, Giggs and Wiley.

Ultra Europe is an electronic, house musical festival that takes place across different Croatian locations including the main event in Split and an additional beach party in Hvar.

Salsa Beach Splash
For something a bit different, the Salsa Beach Splash is a fun festival event which people visit year on year for its amazing atmosphere, friendly festival goers, fun dance classes and demonstrations. Taking place in the beautiful Sibenik, this festival combines music and a love of dance to create a truly unique experience.
