This year's Leto in Kraljević will feature more than 40 cultural, entertainment and sports events for all generations. The traditional event is organised by the City of Kraljević and the local tourist board, with most of the programme free for visitors.
The event was opened on 23 June by the 'Bruno Ku' memorial mini-football tournament, with traditional regattas and the Petrov na Bakarc celebration held over the same weekend. The sports section also includes a joint viewing of the World Cup match between Ghana and Croatia.
The musical highlight of the summer will be the arrival of the band Magazine at the Kraljević riviera. The group will also perform on 26 July, with Nova Fossils following on 1 August, and the 777 group, with the dance programme Porto Retro and the Infinity Band on the summer stage on 18 July. The Fešta from Klapa will host Ma Star and La Band, with the Tira Tira festival at Bakarc featuring Tomislav Bralić and the Klapa Intrade, while the Frankopan Castle will host Josip Butor, Karolina Kuljanić and Mario Batović.
The local summer will be opened by the concert of Mirjana Bob, while the evening of film music 'Starry Sky' by the Sklad choir will be held with guest opera artists. Comedian fans will enjoy stand-up performances by Ivan Šarić on 23 July and Željko Perić on 23 August, with the play 'If I Were Someone' by Enis Bešlagić on 30 July, alongside a theatre programme for children and two screenings at the summer cinema.
Tickets for paid events range from 15 euros for the Skopje to 36.50 euros for the Bešlagić play, with tickets available at the Kraljević Visitor Centre and via the Entrio, Eventim and Core Event systems, depending on the event.
The event will conclude with a concert of the most beautiful opera arias performed by the graduates of the master class led by tenor Francisco Araiza and opera singer Marija Vidović, with the return of the master class to Kraljević highlighted by the organizers as a confirmation of the programme's quality.
