Experience an unforgettable Advent on Lošinj!
The most beautiful Christmas story is coming to the island of vitality this year, and all the islanders and guests can expect a varied pastime full of surprises.
In addition to appropriate Christmas houses located on the town square of Malošinj, the City and the Tourist Board of the City of Mali Lošinj, in cooperation with numerous partners, have prepared daily cultural and entertainment events intended for all generations. Decorating pine trees, and even underwater ones, then animation for children, music, drama, recitation, dance and entertainment programs as well as humanitarian actions, football tournaments and theater performances - are part of this year's Advent on Lošinj.
The uniqueness of the Advent season in Lošinj, as well as the entire Christmas and New Year's program, lies in its humanitarian spirit. All participants will join forces to raise funds through various activities and auctions, donating the proceeds to charitable causes for the community.
The "Christmas Fair" is also held in the square of Mali Lošinj, where you can buy a variety of local products and handmade items created by Lošinj local producers!
