A festival celebrating music, art, and community in an idyllic setting on the Croatian coast.
Love International is held annually, usually in early July. As it is an event, its specific hours vary each day and are published in the official program before the festival. Tisno is located on the island of Murter, which is connected to the mainland by a bridge, and can be reached by car or bus from nearby cities such as Zadar or Split. I recommend checking the official website for this year’s schedule: loveinternational.org.
The cost of tickets for Love International varies depending on the package you choose (daily, weekend, or full festival pass) and the sales phase. In general, it is a paid festival, and prices are announced in advance. Tickets can be purchased exclusively through the festival’s official sales channels. You can find all information about prices and points of sale at: loveinternational.org/tickets/.
Love International is an immersive experience that lasts several days, generally between 5 and 7. To enjoy it fully and experience its unique atmosphere, it is recommended to attend for the whole festival if possible. If your time is limited, at least a couple of days will allow you to immerse yourself in the music, activities, and overall atmosphere.
Love International is the successor to the legendary Garden Festival, which was a pioneer in Croatia’s festival scene. Its significance lies in being a gathering place for electronic music lovers from around the world, celebrating freedom, community, and joy in an idyllic setting. It does not have a historical story in the traditional sense, but it does have a rich and acclaimed trajectory within dance music festival culture.
The best time to visit Love International is during the dates when it takes place, which are usually in early July. The festival offers a daytime experience with boat parties and events at The Olive Grove, and a nighttime experience with headline events at Barbarella's Discotheque. For the 'best experience,' I recommend taking part in both the daytime and nighttime activities.
The Love International venue at The Garden Resort Tisno, while designed for comfort, has certain limitations due to its natural setting with uneven ground. They make an effort to be inclusive, but it is important to contact them directly to discuss specific mobility needs and confirm which areas are accessible. For any inquiries, you can find contact information on their website or in the 'Travel Info' section: loveinternational.org/travel-info/.
Once you have enjoyed the festival, Tisno and its surroundings offer much more. You can explore the beautiful beaches of Murter Island, visit the nearby city of Šibenik with its impressive Cathedral of St. James (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), or take a trip to Krka National Park to see its famous waterfalls. You may also want to consider the vibrant nightlife and restaurants in cities such as Zadar, about an hour away by car.
Of course! For the best experience, I recommend booking your accommodation and flights well in advance, as Tisno fills up quickly. Bring comfortable clothes and suitable shoes for dancing, stay well hydrated under the Croatian sun, and do not forget sunscreen. Explore the different festival areas and stay open to spontaneity!
