A long and warm summer during which the people of Varaždin and its guests will be able to enjoy a variety of programs at various well-known and perhaps a little less well-known locations in the city, united in the already traditional event Summer in Varaždin and is a kind of prelude to the most popular festival of street walkers - the 27th edition of Špancirfest.
Festivals, theater productions, various museum exhibits and many other events are woven into the historical fabric of Varaždin. Summer in Varaždin is always refreshing with the richness and quality of content.
More than 230 diverse events will be held from June 1 to August 21. The rich program was shaped by almost 40 organizers from cultural, musical, artistic, sports and other institutions and associations, creating a rich and varied offer that encompasses all generations and a wide variety of interests.
At some of the most famous city locations, from the Old Town and Vatroslav Jagić Promenade, to the Theater, Stančić and Kapucinski Squares, to the former Varteks factory and the Varaždin airport, visitors can expect concerts, plays, workshops, exhibitions, dance performances, an art colony, a car show and numerous other events throughout the summer. The fact that Varaždin rightfully bears the title of a festival city is confirmed by the summer months, which are opened by the KVART festival, followed by the Get up stand up festival, IKAR fest, the Varaždin Courtyards Festival, Biergarten, UPS fest, the COFA International Folklore Festival and the Fontana blues festival.
The quality and diversity of musical content is due to the Varaždin Concert Office, which organizes a series of concerts and dance evenings during the summer at the Theater Square, in the Atrium of the City Hall, and in the Great Concert Hall of the Croatian National Theatre.
Lovers of the written word will enjoy literary events at the City Library and Reading Room "Metel Ožegović".
The 2nd edition of the Drava Cauldron will open the beginning of the swimming season at the City Swimming Pool on the Drava.
Saturdays in Varaždin have become synonymous with music, tradition and culture. In the first and only Croatian UNESCO City of Music, the program The Musical Face of Varaždin on Saturdays continues, organized by the Varaždin Tourist Board, and includes music from the balconies of palaces, from a music caravan, mini concerts of classical, popular and film music on the organ in the cathedral, a verglaša, the changing of the guard of the Varaždin Civic Guard, a cannon shot in front of the Old Town and a walk of Ladies in Historical Dresses, accompanied by a retro bicycle from the Museum of Oldtimers and Old Technology. The Saturday morning program on the Traditional Crafts Square is complemented by interesting workshops on traditional creativity, often enriched by performances by folklore ensembles.
