Cest Is d'Best Festival in Central Zagreb, Croatia - Steemer's Review

It is almost summer! Time for small local festivals! I enjoy such occasions, especially if there is beer somewhere!


And if they offer a fun program!

Cest is the Best is a pun of a name. ‘Cesta’ means ‘street’ or ‘road’ in Croatian. It is an invitation to any kind of artist who perform in streets for tips. A fun and talented bunch gathers every year!

Acrobatics, balloon twisting, caricatures, clowning, comedy, dance, singing, fire skills, flea circus, fortune-telling, juggling, magic, mime, living statue, musical performance, puppeteering, or street art such as sketching and painting, street theater, ventriloquism. You name it - they do it!

To see


Location - broader city centre. Main Square, Flower Square, Zrinjevac Park, European Square...

Use the suggested route in the picture below!

Highlights Today (4/6/2017 - Sunday) are:

  • Šo! Mazgoon concert (etno/rock/reggae) - EU Square - 21:00
  • DJ BRADINGHO - HIPPY TIME - Park Zrinjevac - 20:30
  • Kalidad (regggae) - Flower Square - 21:00

To drink


Craft beer of course. I have noticed Medvedgrad beers at a decent budget price of 16 kuna (2.33$) per bottle at a few stands. I wrote about Medvedgrad in this post.

Also, other craft breweries scattered around the small stands. Don’t be lazy!

To do

  • Compete in ‘pastelization’ - you get pastels and your square meter of asphalt, with awesome results!
  • dance in the streets
  • watch performers, jugglers, buskers and other free artists
  • have a snack - sweet or salty
  • find a new love interest! Approach everyone!
  • Learn new tricks, join the performers
  • drink beer with friends

One of my favourites - art in pastels
