Dear friends and business partners!

The month of June is the beginning of the summer, which is marked every year in Zagreb by the various activities of numerous events in the city, as well as the growing number of arrivals of foreign and domestic tourists. Visitors, tourists and citizens will also have the opportunity to enjoy top-notch music, film, dance, art and entertainment at this beautiful location this month.

In the Park Maksimir, one of the most beautiful European parks, every Saturday, from June to September, a Zagreb picnic is held. Zagreb's picnic is a reminder of the old, good Zagreb tradition of family and friendly gatherings, home-made biscuits from picnic baskets and enjoyment of the shade of centuries-old Maksimir's crowns. And in the most beautiful park in the center of Zagreb, between Tomić street, Ilica and Strossmayer's promenade the third edition of Art Park starts. Until September 30 Art Park hosts numerous artists from Croatia and the world and offers a pleasant summer afternoon, an open gallery and a varied daily program where everyone will find something for themselves.

The people of Zagreb and their guests will no doubt once again turn out in great numbers to the lawns of Tomislav Square to enjoy well-loved works of classical music. This popular open-air festival of classical music and opera brings us back to the lawns of Trg kralja Tomislava for the third year running, to this green park which stretches between the Art Pavilion and the main railway station. Over three weeks, from 20 June to 11 July, concerts will be performed by the Zagreb Philharmonic, the HRT Symphony Orchestra and some of the best Croatian choirs. There will be renowned international guests like Argentinian tenor Jose Cura. 

The 28th edition of the World Animated Film Festival - Animafest Zagreb 2018 is taking place in Zagreb, which brings a huge number of the best international and domestic performances to the Zagreb audience.

In the Great Contest, comedian and family filmmakers will come to theirs. There are also many political works, interesting animated documentaries, as well as movies heavily based on music.

And for the end of the month, the largest domestic open air festival in its 13th edition in Zagreb brings
