Zagreb is gearing up for the concert of the year – Marko Perković Thompson is expected to draw over half a million people! Yes, you read that right, half a million! The city is on high alert as if preparing for an invasion, not a music event. The police have labeled this concert as the most demanding public gathering in Croatia to date, with months of preparation behind it.
Health services are ready for all possible scenarios. About 85% of medical interventions are expected to be minor and handled on-site, 10% will require emergency medical treatment, and 5% might end up hospitalized. That means thousands of people could be hospitalized because of the concert!
The city of Zagreb and the police have prepared a detailed traffic plan, but if you think you can just leave your car anywhere, think again. Last night’s dress rehearsal showed roads clogged with cars, and vehicles blocking emergency routes will be mercilessly towed away.
Visitors are especially urged to use SMS instead of calls during the event, as mobile networks will be overloaded.
Exiting the concert will take hours and must be sector-controlled to avoid crowds. Organizers ask for patience and adherence to instructions.
All in all, this is not just a concert; it’s a logistical and security challenge that will test the patience and organization of Zagreb and its citizens. If you plan to attend, get ready for a real adventure – and don’t forget comfortable shoes and plenty of water!
So, what do you think – will it all go smoothly, or is this going to be a chaos for the ages? Drop a comment, let’s see who’s optimistic and who’s already bracing for disaster!
