The favourite town promenade, ’’riva’’, once a month displays a brand new look and becomes the host to the most visited fiesta honouring fishermen and their catches.

During the fishermen festivals taste the recipes inspired by the Adriatic Sea, let locals teach you the secrets of successful fishing, and with a glass of supreme Istrian Malvazija, sing from the bottom of your heart, imbued with the indigenous sea richess.

The Vrsar  fisherman festivals are celebrations of fish and seafoods, held long into the hot Mediterranean night under the starlit sky.

Don't miss the fishermen festival on Fridays starting at 6 pm on the waterfront in Vrsar. (The organiser reserves the right to change the programme. In case of bad weather programs are subject to change without prior notice.)
