Biograd’s City Port will showcase a wide selection of brokerage yachts – including motor yachts, sailing yachts and catamarans up to 22 metres – offering visitors pre-owned vessels from reputable dealers. The seaside promenade leading to the City Port will host the latest car models from renowned manufacturers. Entry to both areas is free, and more than 35 vehicles will be on display in total.
The legendary entertainment programme remains a hallmark of the event: a spectacular fireworks show, free concerts by Soulfingers and Neno Belan, plus parties and evening gatherings at the Marina Kornati restaurant will light up the nights.
A GOOD YEAR TO BUY
After years of price growth and extended delivery times, the market is now shifting in favour of buyers. Dealers have well-stocked inventories and are offering tangible discounts. With new challenges expected for shipyards in 2026, most industry experts believe now is the right time to place an order.
