For the third time, the Honorary Consulate of the Republic of Croatia in Krakow organized the Croatian Picnic in Krakow on May 27 in the Little Croatia Park.
Croatian and Polish institutions related to Croatia took part in it. These companies presented their products and services at the stands. Sailing competitions were held, balloons in Croatian and Polish colors were released, and the inhabitants of Krakow and guests planted lavender.
There was also a show of Dalmatians and Croatian Shepherds. Many competitions and many other attractions were organized for children.

At the end of the Croatian Picnic, a competition was held for a holiday advertising slogan inviting to Croatia and a slogan promoting Hotel Miran d.d. in Pirovac. The winning slogans rhyming perfectly in Polish: “You won’t find a better holiday than staying in Croatia” and “Hotel Miran in Pirovac? – turn on the navigation and drive!”
