Afterparty, DJ Pepi Jogarde & Vanillaz music (Caffe bar Versi)

No filter needed, it's really that beautiful

A seaside stage beneath the Mediterranean sky.

It's not a postcard - it's the unreal atmosphere of Bačvice Open-Air Cinema.

Ticket prices for both days are €80, for one day €50 / For students €30 for both days

Talk business, ask for advice, and exchange ideas with others

Networking, Dalmatian style.

No suits - just open minds, great food, and cold beer.

No photos from the afterparty - yeah, it's that good

When the sun sets, the cricket song fades into a live DJ set.
