Dani Tramuntane
Jul 25 - Aug 15, 2026Expected
Each summer the northern Cres villages of Beli, Dragozetići, and Predošćica welcome home the Tramuntane, the residents who left for abroad in the mid-20th century, with cultural programs and gatherings. The festival keeps alive the memory of these once-depopulated villages and the people who return to them.
The Days of Tramuntana record is date-tracked, but stronger reviewed Field Guide media would make it easier to inspect.
