Patriotic Concert at Arena Zagreb: Return of the Patriotic Stage or Political Spectacle?
Get ready, because on October 11th, Arena Zagreb is set to host a spectacle that will ignite patriotic passions! Following last year’s success, where 25 well-known Croatian music stars performed before 18,000 attendees from Croatia, Germany, and Austria, this year brings a new wave of patriotic hits.
Performers include Miroslav Škoro, Mate Bulić, Zaprešić Boysi, Šima Jovanovac, and Tiho Orlić, with tickets already on sale via Eventim. The concert is famous for featuring songs from all regions of Croatia, with the orchestra conducted by Ante Gelo.
But it’s not just about music and patriotism. This concert has become a symbol of patriotic gathering but also a subject of controversy. Is it merely a celebration of the homeland or a political performance?
Last year’s concert opened with the Croatian national anthem and was held under the sign of victory, with the stage shaped like the letter V.
For those who like to follow behind-the-scenes, a similar concert was held in Zadar last year, showing the movement’s expansion.
If you love patriotic songs and atmosphere, this is an event you don’t want to miss. And if you’re skeptical, maybe it’s time to ask what patriotism really means in today’s Croatia.
Either way, prepare for loud singing and maybe some controversy. What do you think—is this just a concert or a political message? Drop a comment and share your thoughts!
