The story

Adventura Sibenik in Sibenik

Despite its name suggesting an adventure-sports event, Adventura Sibenik is the city's Advent and Christmas season, a play on the word Advent, centered on Robert Visiani Park with an ice rink, festive lighting, concerts and a children's program running from early December through early January.

Despite a name that suggests outdoor adventure sport, Adventura Sibenik is the city's branded Advent and Christmas season, a play on the Croatian word for Advent merged with a suggestion of adventure, and it has become one of the more highly regarded Christmas markets and festive programs in Croatia, drawing comparisons in travel coverage to the country's larger Advent events in Zagreb and Rijeka.
