Foodballerka found its new home in the green oasis of Tuškanac. Popular band A tribute to Dino Dvornik to play on the opening of the Festival
Football fever will hit Croatia over the next month when Euro 2020 takes place. Popular football gastro festival Foodballerka will be the place to be again in Zagreb from June 11 to July 12.
This year, the famous festival has found its home on the old Cibona basketball court located in Tuškanac. As an oasis of good music and vibes, twenty DJs, including the legends Pepi Jogarde and Ozren Kanceljak, and many bands will lift your spirits up.
Karlovačko Korner, with its favourite colours and secured much-needed beer hydration that so many people adore, will be there again.
There will also be heaven of good food as well. Have a go with burgers by Institut za burgere by Mate Janković, Street Pizza or El Toro with their proven recipes, or Chef kuha doma, Asian Garden by Marko Palfi, as well as brilliant desserts by Le Kolač and their virtuoso Robert Hromalić. And when the Croatian football team is playing, Grill&Chill by Lidl will be a flavourful reinforcement offering delicious barbecue specialties.
And if you are in the mood to touch the sky, find yourself a rooftop and secure the best view of the big screen during the football games.
Gingle Bells and Fooodballerka bar, along with the Cocktail bar by A Most Unusual Garden, will be there for you with unbelievably good cocktails and other drinks. For pop-up moments, visit House of Kiwi, a flea market by August XVI and Dorica 505 and Vesela motika, and dance through time with Nicolas & Ksenija from the Dance centre Zagreb by Nicolas. Make a memorable selfie while immersed in joy and laughter that will fill the venue.
Cheer on the Croatian football team and enjoy yourself at Foodballerka.
