RetrOpatija 2025 brings an unforgettable retro experience to Opatija, combining music, fashion and the atmosphere of past decades. From June 26th to 28th, visitors will enjoy concerts, dance performances and a rich program celebrating the culture and style of the last century.
It is one of the most original festivals on the coast, which every year brings back the spirit of past decades to the heart of Kvarner. Thanks to its authenticity and unique concept, RetrOpatija has once again received significant financial support this year, which will enable an even more spectacular program in 2025.
RetrOpatija is a musical time machine that takes visitors back to the golden eras of music, fashion and style, combining flowing swing, playful rockabilly, solid rocker riffs, unbridled jazz improvisations and electric disco rhythms, creating top-notch entertainment dedicated to the key decades and musical styles of the last century. It brings together retro culture lovers from all over the world, top musicians, pin-up girls, dancers, jugglers and street musicians, make-up artists and hairdressers, old Vespa and Tomos models, fićeks and oldtimers. It combines the energy of past decades with modern tourist trends. Authentic costumes, retro hairstyles and impeccable aesthetics contribute to a unique atmosphere that keeps visitors coming back every year.
The highlight of RetrOpatija traditionally takes place on Saturday evening. On that day, from late afternoon until early morning, the center of Opatija is closed to traffic and completely abandoned to pedestrians, dancers and entertainment. The main city road is transformed into a huge open-air dance floor, and every corner of the city echoes with music. Cafes, restaurants and shops also contribute to the authentic retro atmosphere with their decoration and offerings. Shop windows become small art installations, and the terraces of the bars become perfect places to take a break with a drink and watch the colorful river of people. A special place on Saturday evening is occupied by the Summer Stage, which becomes the epicenter of the largest disco party under the starry sky.
It represents a key part of the tourism development strategy in Kvarner, contributes to the branding of the destination, increases recognition and strengthens the emotional connection of visitors to the region. The combination of historical heritage, modern organization and innovative approaches makes the Opatija Riviera one of the most attractive destinations in the Mediterranean.
