Zadarfest Explained

Zadarfest is a music festival held annually since 1993 in Zadar, Croatia. In 2010, it was held in the Višnjik Hall,^[1] but was criticized for lack of appeal to the audience.^[2] The 2011 edition was moved to Kukljica on a nearby island, but was plagued by bad weather and attendance issues as well.^[3]
