5 reasons why you shouldn't miss Rovinj
Wondering where Rovinj even is and what takes place there? It is the highlight for all dancers, namely the largest dance festival in Europe in the beautiful Croatian coastal town of Rovinj. Bachata and Kizomba lovers come to the Summer Sensual Days at their expense, salsa dancers at the Croatian Summer Salsa Festival.
That's why you shouldn't miss it either:
1. extraordinary ambience in the old tobacco factory
Around 5,000 dancers dance every evening in an old tobacco factory on five to seven huge floors. No matter what you like, you'll find it: Salsa Romantica, Salsa Cubana, Salsa Puertoriqueña, Kizomba and Bachata. The entrance with the red carpet and a large outdoor area will get you in the festival mood. Shows and concerts included, of course.
2. the most beautiful old town in the world
Have you danced enough? Discover the beautiful old town by the sea with its many alleyways, incredibly good restaurants, tons of gelaterias and great romantic spots. Visit the church and enjoy the sunset. I bet you'll end up dancing in some piazza, because the whole old town is taken over by dancers.Our tip for the best sunset: book a table at Maestral and try their fish.
3. Wonderful dancing moments on Mulini Beach
Of course, you can let off steam in the workshops during the day or simply relax a little on Mulini Beach. In the afternoon, people dance into the sunset here, the atmosphere blows you away and you finally have time to talk to all the dancers from all over the world: yes, they all have the same passion as you and you will meet them again at all kinds of festivals around the world.4. the biggest pool party you've ever seen
At the end of each festival week, Villa Rubin hosts the biggest pool party you've ever seen. Dance on two incredible floors until you can dance no more. I thought I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it for the first time.Too much for you? No problem: the festival offers several dance ships with your favorite music style every day - a really great experience. Choose at least one ship and book your ticket in advance.
5. fall in love!
In Rovinj, there is a great chance of meeting the love of your life - I know several happily married couples who met in Rovinj and it also happened to me in 2021. It's also very easy with: Sea, Sun, Salsa & Bachata!
I could add tons of bullets to the list. I'm sure that after you've been there, you'll feel the same way and go back every year - for the absolute highlight of the year!
