This year, the Festival will be closely followed by a Jury Panel composed of: director and drama educator Iva Srnec Hamer, director Boris Kovačević, and actor Kristijan Ugrina. They will announce the best of the best in nine categories at the Festival’s closing ceremony on May 4 at 9:00 PM.

The Festival is organized by the Croatian Cultural Association, co-organized and hosted by the Vodice Centre for Arts and Culture and the newly formed Association of Cultural and Artistic Societies of the Šibenik-Knin County.
