Dance Party at Zrinjevac Park
From the 50s to the 70s of the last century, the favorite type of entertainment for Zagreb residents were dance parties. Many generations grew up keeping up with the world trends and dancing to the rhythm of the most popular pop, rock, jazz and swing hits. The Dance Party at Zrinjevac revive the spirit of the old Zagreb dance parties.
Participants will be able to dance around the Music Pavilion, which became, back in 1891, a place known for organizing promenade concerts. The dance shoes will be moving to the rhythm of various music genres. There will be swing and rock'n'roll and the attendees will be dancing Charleston jive, salsa and tango. The diversity of the music and entertainment program is one of its main perks, enriching Zagreb's abundant summer event schedule.
