Since mid-November, Zagreb features yet another high category hotel, the DoubleTree by Hilton, located within the Green Gold modern business centre. Apart from top class accommodation, it provides guests with an excellent gastronomic offer and business facilities.

On December 23rd, the Zagreb audience will have the opportunity to enjoy the best known love story by William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, as well as the famous fairy tale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs at the ice rink of the Dom Sportova Sports Hall. The two glamorous shows will be performed by Russian ice skaters who have been conquering the world with this attractive programme.

Zagreb is once again getting ready for another memorable event which will take place on the 4th and 6th of January at Sljeme, where the world's best slalom skiers will compete for points in the World Ski Cup.

Due to their immense popularity around the world, the renowned Croatian violoncellists, Stjepan Hauser and Luka Šulić, collectively known as 2cellos, will once again attract a large crowd to the Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall on December 22nd, where they will perform a somewhat different repertoire with the Zagreb Soloists; classical music will briefly replace their recognizable rock style.

Until January 6th next year, Zagreb’s Museum of Arts and Crafts will feature the exhibition “Advent at the Museum of Arts and Crafts”, dedicated to Christmas holiday traditions – gift giving, room decorating, cake making and card-crafting… Although very appealing, this exhibition is but a part of the magic offered by this year’s Advent in Zagreb.

From the beginning of 2013, the Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall will present new productions, which the Zagreb audience will have an opportunity to see within Lisinski’s Metropolitan Programme. The repertoire includes Trojans by Hector Berlioz on January 5th, Maria Stuarda by Gaetano Donizetti on January 19th, and the Vienna Boys Choir on January 26th.

Although there is still plenty of time left until June of next year, everyone who wants to make sure not to miss performances by global music stars at the upcoming INmusic Festival 2013 can already purchase their tickets, in a special Christmas package, for only 320 kuna.

Zagreb’s Modern Gallery is commemorating the 85th anniversary of the death of Croatian painter and art historian, Isidor Kršnjavi, with the exhibition titled “Kršnjavi, Quiquerez, Mašić – Dawn Impressions”. From November 21st until December 9th audiences can appreciate a symbiosis of works by the three artists which clearly demonstrates that Croatian painting was well on its way towards impressionism.
