Advent in Rijeka and Kvarner 2026
From late November to Epiphany, Kvarner towns light up, open their huts and set up stages. Here are all confirmed Advent programmes and concerts in one place.
Which Advent to choose
Opatija and Crikvenica run until January 6, and Crikvenica also has the “Ledena morska bajka” ice rink and Santa's House on Trg Stjepana Radića. Mali Lošinj has the richest music programme on its main square, from the Dellboys and Silente to New Year's Eve with SuperCover Band. Cres ends the year with a noon party, while smaller places like Čavle and Fužine keep Advent relaxed and local.
Rijeka: Rijeka Advent “The Source of Good Feelings” runs from November 28, 2026 to January 10, 2027 at several locations around the city, with a programme and food stalls. The Rijeka Tourist Board has not published the detailed programme yet; we will add it as soon as it is out.

Practical notes
- Concerts on Advent squares are usually free, but we only mark free entry when the organiser explicitly confirms it.
- For New Year's Eve, see our guide New Year's Eve 2027 in Rijeka and Kvarner.
- Programmes are often extended during November; this page refreshes automatically as we add confirmed dates.
We write the guides ourselves; their event lists are generated from the verified rijeka.party registry.
