Each year, the Festival of Lights Zagreb turns the city into a vibrant open-air gallery where light becomes art, welcoming spring in a unique way. Taking place from 18 to 22 March 2026, the festival presented 26 light installations across 21 locations, transforming Zagreb’s streets and landmarks through projections, animations and creative storytelling.

Alongside Croatian artists, ten international artists from the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Slovakia and Spain participated, attracting visitors of all generations.

The festival’s growing international reputation is confirmed by its recognition by European Best Destinations and Forbes, which listed it among the best events in Europe to visit in 2026.
