The Garden Festival was possibly the best festival I have ever been to.

“The Garden Festival was possibly the best festival I have ever been to. Intimate enough for you to make best friends out of perfect strangers, but big enough to ensure you're listening to the finest talent, The Garden Festival has successfully brought together the key ingredients to make a perfect weekend - sunshine, beautiful scenery, amazing music and a crowd like no other.”

By 2005 The Garden Zadar had already established itself as one of the best loved and most musically adventurous additions to Croatians nightlife and culture. So much so that the owners of the Pinija Hotel in the nearby village of Petrcane approached us about taking on an event space which had been dormant for some years.
