The Garden Festival is one of the hippest, coolest and most forwardthinking on the global calendar. Set on a narrow pine-shaded peninsular which juts into shimmering azure Adriatic waters near the 900-year-old village of Petrcane, it is attended by world class DJs and live acts and party people from all over Europe and beyond. Run by two UK families who moved to the area years ago, The Garden combines sun-kissed holiday vibes and a very intimate festival feel. Twice daily boat parties run on the legendary Argonaughty and there is late night action in the lovingly restored Barbarellas Discotheque club. Live acts play under the shade on the main outdoor stage whilst The Tiki Bar, where waves lap over the feet of dancers, is perfect for catching the stunning sunsets. Many people who attend also travel around Croatia too – there is so much to see and do in the region, everything from exploring historic towns and deserted islands to secluded beaches and ancient monuments. This year’s headliners include Rob da Bank, Mr Scruff, Greg Wilson, Crazy P, 2020 Soundsystem, Terry Callier, Tensnake, Horse Meat Disco, Qool DJ Marv, The Revenge, Cuban Brothers, Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones, Sebo K, Floating Points, Filthy Dukes, Metro Area, Henrik Schwarz and many, many more.
