[Everything is ready for the first Advent in the Arena:
Magic begins on December 6th]

The final preparations behind the walls of the amphitheater as part of “Advent in P**a - L’Avvento a Pola” are nearing completion, ensuring that the Christmas magic will begin on December 6th.

At the center lies a large ice rink spanning an impressive 600 m². Decorative elements inspired by the legend of fairies will evoke a mythical story connected to the site throughout the Advent period. The stone stands have been transformed into a snow-covered forest with 111 pine trees, complemented by special fog effects and numerous lighting features. Behind the stands, there are three light tunnels, one of which will offer an exceptional visual experience with a thematic video projection.

The grand opening will take place on December 6th at 6:00 PM!

A special program is being prepared by the Medo Skating Club from Zagreb, whose 50 skaters, through fairy-tale costumes, lavish sets, and ballet music, will bring beloved stories to life, including Cinderella, Snow White, The Three Little Pigs, and more. P**a musician Kristina Iveković will add to the musical magic, while the holiday classic “All I Want for Christmas” will mark the moment when visitors with tickets for the 7:00 PM session can step onto the ice and join the Medo Club skaters.

Visitors will be able to enjoy numerous thematic attractions and Christmas delights that will run until January 6!

[Medulin Riviera: Following the Trail of Imperial Past]

If you take an archaeological walk around Vižula, along the promenade, you will follow the road where rich ancient Romans and their distinguished guests used to walk.

Vižula was home to dignitaries, patricians and senators. Their lifestyle involved comfort and enjoyment, and their wealth and luxury are reflected in all the parts of the villa discovered so far, such as its rich mosaics and colourful marble surfaces, its aqueduct, peristyle with well-manicured gardens, and portico, which hosted all-night parties…

The Vižula peninsula lies in Medulin Bay, on a prominent ancient sea route. The position provided a secure area for the villa residents and a safe anchoring site sheltered from strong winds and the open sea for seafarers.

Traces of luxuriousness and prosperity of the magnificent Roman civilisation are mirrored on the entire peninsula and its underwater world…
