Sajam u srednjovjekovnom Šibeniku (Medieval Fair in Šibenik)

Šibenik, Croatia

The Medieval Fair in Šibenik turns the Dalmatian port's waterfront below the UNESCO-listed Cathedral of St James and the lanes of the old town into a three-day market of costumed craftspeople, with knights' combat, cannon fire, period music and an evening re-enactment of a 1378 naval battle along the riva. Revived in 2025 after a five-year pause, the 17th edition is scheduled for 4–6 September 2026 and the programme is free.

Rab, Croatia

Rapska fjera is a three-day medieval street festival in the walled town of Rab, held every 25–27 July on the feast days of St James, St Anne and St Christopher, with craft workshops in the lanes, a fishermen's village on the beach, a costumed parade, a crossbow tournament and fireworks over the harbour. It revives a town holiday decreed in 1364 to thank King Louis I for freeing Rab from Venice, and was re-established in 2002; the 25th edition ran in July 2026.
